In conversation with Joanna Johnson, UTA
Bestselling author Jo Piazza is back with The Parisian Heist, a propulsive dual-timeline mystery drenched in art-world intrigue.
Emma is a struggling American artist in Paris. There she meets Stella Swanson, the widow of one of the most notorious art dealers in the business. In the late 1800s, young widow Jo van Gogh inherits hundreds of paintings from her brother-in-law Vincent. As she becomes consumed by Vincent’s legacy, a vanished painting and a thwarted love affair leave her unsure who she can trust. The lives of these two women converge as Emma uncovers the Swanson family’s darkest secrets and agrees to mastermind a daring heist inside the Musée d’Orsay. The stakes have never been higher, and these women refuse to be written out of history, no matter the cost.
Jo Piazza is the international bestselling author of 12 books, including the Good Morning America Book Club selection We Are Not Like Them with Christine Pride. Her work has been featured in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, among other publications.
