Summary

Italy, 1940. With Florence on the cusp of war, Il Scorpione, the no-nonsense Englishwomen of the city, find their genteel livelihoods under grave threat by the approach of the Nazis. Tea rooms and bookshops are closed by the Fascists, and the women are forced to join the war effort. Desperate to help in any way that she can, Angelina Leone, expert art-historian and the half-Italian niece of Il Scoprione's founder makes a deal with the devil. To guarantee her beloved aunt Agatha, the only family she has, safe passage across the city, Lina must authenticate the art ruthlessly stolen from Jewish families.
