Why read it?
1 author picked The Lost Concerto as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
In The Lost Concerto a woman has set aside her career as a classical pianist, for deeply personal reasons—then finds herself not only reclaiming her music, but also finding answers to a past mystery as well as new connections in the present. Both novels are about loss, love, and the power of music to lift and heal us. What makes The Lost Concerto especially appealing is its cross-genre blend of suspense, intrigue, stolen art, and the journey from vengeance to courage. You won’t be able to put it down!
From Barbara's list on The best novels framed around music and seen through the eyes of a musician.
