Description
The Last Tiara by M. J. Rose is a moving story of two young women, Sofiya Petrovitch and Isobelle Moon, whose lives become intertwined through a mysterious silver tiara. In 1915, Sofiya tends to wounded soldiers in the Winter Palace hospital, while in 1948 New York, Isobelle breaks through sexism as one of few women working in her profession. The tiara's provenance draws Isobelle closer to her mother's past and the story of her father back in Russia. As Isobell delves deeper into the tiara's history, she meets a young jeweler who becomes conflicted about his loyalty to the Midas Society, a covert international organization that seeks to return lost antiques. The stories of these two women unfold in alternating points of view, revealing their struggles during two separate wars and their quest for love and family.
