INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER New York Times bestselling author Kristin Harmel returns with a "dazzling diamond of a novel" (Hazel Gaynor, New York Times bestselling author of Before Dorothy) about two jewel thieves, a priceless bracelet that disappears in 1940s Paris, and a quest for answers in a decades-old murder. Colette Marceau has been stealing jewels for nearly as long as she can remember, following the centuries-old code of honor instilled in her by her mother, Annabel: take only from the cruel and unkind, and give to those in need. Never was their family tradition more important than seven decades earlier, during the Second World War, when Annabel and Colette worked side by side in Paris to fund the French Resistance. But one night in 1942, it all went wrong. Annabel was arrested by the Germans, and Colette's four-year-old sister, Liliane, disappeared in the chaos of the raid, along with an exquisite diamond bracelet sewn into the hem of her nightgown for safekeeping. Soon after, Annabel was executed, and Liliane's body was found floating in the Seine--but the bracelet was nowhere to be found. Seventy years later, Colette--who has "redistributed" $30 million in jewels over the decades to fund many worthy organizations--has done her best to put her tragic past behind her, but her life begins to unravel when the long-missing bracelet suddenly turns up in a museum exhibit in Boston. If Colette can discover where it has been all this time--and who owns it now--she may finally learn the truth about what happened to her sister. But she isn't the only one for whom the bracelet holds answers, and when someone from her childhood lays claim to the diamonds, she's forced to confront the ghosts of her past as never before. Against all odds, there may still be a chance to bring a murderer to justice--but first, Colette will have to summon the courage to open her own battered heart.

A dazzling biography of the French literary superstar Colette, who is also the subject of a major motion picture. "A fine and intelligent biography of Colette, with her long tumultuous life and the great body of her work scrupulously considered and presented with style."--The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice) NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST - WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK AWARD - NOMINATED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD Having spent her childhood in the shadow of an overpowering mother, Colette escaped at age twenty into a turbulent marriage with the sexy, unscrupulous Willy--a literary charlatan who took credit for her bestselling Claudine novels. Weary of Willy's sexual domination, Colette pursued an extremely public lesbian love affair with a niece of Napoleon's. At forty, she gave birth to a daughter who bored her, at forty-seven she seduced her teenage stepson, and in her seventies she contributed to the pro-Nazi press during the Occupation, even though her beloved third husband, a Jew, had been arrested by the Gestapo. And all the while, this incomparable woman poured forth a torrent of masterpieces, including Gigi, Sido, Cheri, and Break of Day. Judith Thurman, author of the National Book Award-winning biography of Isak Dinesen, portrays Colette as a thoroughly modern woman: frank in her desires, fierce in her passions, forever reinventing herself. Rich with delicious gossip and intimate revelations, shimmering with grace and intelligence, Secrets of the Flesh is one of the great biographies of our time. Chosen as one of the Best Books of the Year by The Village Voice and Newsday " Colette] has been the subject of . . . a half-dozen significant biographies over the past thirty years. Yet this one by Judith Thurman will be hard to top. . . . Its prose is smoothly urbane, at times aphoristic, always captivating."--The Washington Post Book World "It will stand as literature in its own right."--Richard Bernstein, The New York Times " An] essential biography by a stylish writer of great sympathetic understanding and intellectual authority."--Philip Roth

Extrait la fin d'une br lante journ e de juin 1914, j' tais assis au bord de l'Oronte dans un petit caf de l'antique Hamah, en Syrie. Les roues ruisselantes qui tournent, jour et nuit, au fil du fleuve pour en lever l'eau bienfaisante, remplissaient le ciel de leur g missement, et un jeune savant me lisait dans un manuscrit arabe une histoire d'amour et de religion... Ce sont de ces heures divines qui demeurent au fond de notre m moire comme un tr sor pour nous enchanter. Pourquoi me trouvais-je ce jour-l dans cette ville myst rieuse et si s che d'Hamah, o le vent du d sert soul ve en tourbillons la poussi re des Crois s, des S leucides, des Assyriens, des Juifs et des lointains Ph niciens ? J'y attendais que f t organis e une petite caravane avec laquelle j'allais parcourir les monts Ansariehs, pour rechercher dans leurs vieux donjons les descendants des fameux Haschischins. Et ce jeune savant, un Irlandais, charg par le British Museum des fouilles de Djerablous sur l'Euphrate, une heureuse fortune venait de me le faire rencontrer qui fl nait comme moi dans les ruelles du bazar.
