CASTLE DALE: LOOK WHAT WE JUST GOT!!

 

France, 1916: Artist Edouard lefevre leaves his young wife, Sophie, to fight at the front. When their small town falls to the Germans in the midst of World War 1, Edouard's portrait of Sophie draws the eye of the new Kommandant. As the officer's dangerous obsession deepens, Sophie decides to risk everything-her family, her reputation, and her life-for the chance to see her husband again.

Almost a century later, Sophie's portrait is given to Liv Halston by her young husband shortly before his sudden death. A chance encounter reveals the painting's true worthe, and a battle begins over its troubled history. Was the painting looted during the war? Who is to pay retribution? And who is the true owner now? As the layers of the painting's dark past are revealed, Liv's life is turned upside down all over again.
