The Drama The Victory In Locating And More Antique The Novel From Seth Panitch
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
For those of you who enjoyed the magic and heart of Remarkably Bright Creatures and the spellbinding undertones and fictionalized history of Last Call at the Savoy, you’ll absolutely love this tale of second-chances, family, and the overarching question we find ourselves asking: after everything is said and done, what am I worth in the end? Grace Schaffer's talent once landed her a coveted spot on Antiques Roadshow, where she charmed legions of viewers. But she’s recently fallen from her gilded perch, losing her career, her marriage, and her very identity in the process, leaving her with the same question her clients so often ask of her: What is it worth? Or, the question that beats beneath it, what am I worth?
In a last-ditch attempt to revive her career, she signs on to an amateur traveling show, where an old, tarnished necklace grants a strange and sudden confidence; she begins predicting the precise amount that objects will sell for at auction—prices that have more to do with the sentiment attached to the object than their market value. But the gift of divination comes with a price; Grace catches the attention of detractors and fans alike, all clamoring to see what she’ll do next.
Caught in the necklace’s strange and possibly dangerous thrall, Grace joins the hunt to uncover a lost masterpiece … before it disappears forever, taking her hopes and dreams with it. You don’t want to miss this glittering debut that marries the beauty of the past with a touch of the fantastic, offering an irresistible tale of second chances.
“Panitch’s first novel is a touching story about the value people place on the objects in their lives and on themselves; fans of Antiques Roadshow will especially enjoy.”
