dark emotional tense medium-paced

5.0

Historical fiction and thriller around the art world and the Harlem Renaissance? Yes, please! I loved this book. The dual timeline worked well, and I found all the characters to be compelling. The mental illness representation was well done, too, and that was a pleasant surprise. 

Thank you to Union Square and Co and NetGalley for the ARC.
