Not every door should be opened... With stunning locations and page-turning tension, The Paris Secret is an intense and gripping tale from author Karen Swan. Somewhere along the cobbled streets of Paris, an apartment lies thick with dust and secrets: full of priceless artworks hidden away for decades. High-flying fine art agent Flora from London, more comfortable with the tension of a million-pound auction than a cosy candlelit dinner for two, is called in to assess these suddenly discovered treasures. As an expert in her field, she must trace the history of each painting and discover who has concealed them for so long. Thrown in amongst the glamorous Vermeil family as they move between Paris and Antibes, Flora begins to discover that things aren't all that they seem. A secret that links the dusty apartment to the Vermeils' glamorous world begins to emerge, and Flora finds herself entangled in a dangerous web of wartime secrets, family lies, and a decades-old mystery with shattering consequences.
