Kat
Lind, an American expatriate living in London with her entrepreneur husband and
their young son, attends an opening at a prestigious Mayfair art gallery and is
astonished to find her own face on the walls. The portraits are evidence of a
long-ago love affair with the artist, Daniel Blake. Unbeknownst to her, he has
continued to paint her ever since. Kat is seduced by her reflection on canvas
and when Daniel appears in London, she finds herself drawn back into the sins
and solace of a past that suddenly no longer seems so far away.
When the portraits catch the attention of the public, threatening to
reveal not only her identity, but all that lies beyond the edges of the
canvases, Kat comes face to face with the true price of their beauty and with
all that she now could lose.
Moving between the glamour of the London art world and the sensuous days
of a love affair in a dusty Paris studio, life and art bleed together as Daniel
and Kat's lives spin out of control, leading to a conclusion that is anything
but inevitable.
