In 1938, English art teacher Juliet Browning returns to Venice and renews her relationship with Leonardo Da Rossi, whose aristocratic family expects him to marry elsewhere. Their private meetings continue as fascism tightens its hold on Italy and the approach of war makes travel and personal choices increasingly dangerous.
Decades later, Juliet’s great-niece Caroline inherits a sketchbook and three keys with instructions to return to Venice. Following the clues, she uncovers Juliet’s wartime sacrifices, the secret protected by Leonardo’s family and the unfinished consequences of their love.
