“...superb descriptions of Spain, its cities and museums, and seventeenth century art—as well as the often cut-throat world of graduate school. The ensuing intrigue is fast-paced, fun to read, hard to put down.”
—Midwest Book Review
“Gorgeously written. . . . Moore’s book is a winner.”
—Caroline Leavitt, New York Times best-selling author of Pictures of You, With or Without You
Art historian Cate Adamson, desperate to succeed to console her grieving parents, leaves the Midwest to complete her doctorate in New York—only to find herself assigned to an impossible sexist advisor. She struggles to impress him until she discovers a hidden painting, possibly a Baroque masterpiece. Risking her career, financial disaster, and further alienation from her family, she flees to Spain with the painting to consult art experts.
Antonio, an impoverished duke, meets Cate on the train to Seville, and joins her search while attempting to rescue the decaying legacy of his family. They find clues and uncover evidence that will shock the titans of art history, may destroy her prospects as an art historian, and shatter her future with Antonio.
Written with vivid prose, rich references to seventeenth century Spanish art, compelling characters and a historical puzzle, Attribution is the story of one contemporary woman’s journey to understand the past and unlock her future.
