That Which Remains

Book Three in the Anna Klein Trilogy

In February of 1946, the US Army Monuments Men’s Collecting Point opens its doors for an exhibition to share its vast art holdings with an eager and weary German public. But it’s more than curious art lovers who come through the doors. When a destitute artist with a dubious story appeals to translator Anna Klein for help with finding paintings he sold before the war, she and her boss Captain Henry Cooper reconstruct a paper trail that leads from Munich to Berlin to Wiesbaden to uncover the truth of what happened to his work, and to him. But, even as Anna’s star has risen with the US Army, the looming redeployments and staff changes threaten to take away Cooper and her treasured job, even as more secrets about the past come to light and pull the rug out from her carefully rebuilt world. Once again, forces beyond her control alter the landscape of her life, and Anna is confronted with finding a path forward that will not only set wrongs to right, but also help her find a way home.
