Portrait of a Shoemaker
New York City Judge Julia Husson hides a dark secret. She is part guardian angel, part conspirator to the shoemaker's strange arrangement. The shoemaker has a talent for hiding her identity. She is a shapeshifter, a master of self-invention. Rumor has it, she spent time in an asylum for killing her mother and brother.
Julia has her career, and she is hopelessly devoted to her niece, B?atrice, yet is tormented by an unbearable error in judgement regarding a teenage girl more than a decade ago. When B?atrice's affair with a famous actor becomes explosive, Julia is reminded that all art is deceptive. What on the surface appears to be a picture of beauty, is, in reality, quite dangerous.
