When Hanna moves to Spain for an internship at the prestigious Prado gallery, she finds herself spending her days buried in the museum’s stifling archives, and her nights alone in a tiny rented flat.
Then one day she sees them; Tom, Samuel, and Leah. Glamorous and elegant, they are also foreigners in the city. But unlike her they are fabulously wealthy, their lives an endless whirl of creativity and hedonism. And when Hanna discovers an uncatalogued 17th century etching in the archive, she makes a decision which changes everything…

Madrid
Much of the novel centres around the Prado Museum where Hanna works. This museum houses the numerous works by Francisco Goya, the single most extensively represented artist in the entire museum.
The Prado, with the nearby Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and the Museo Reina Sofía, forms Madrid’s Golden Triangle of Art, which was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2021.
You will get quite a view of the museum and the city with this bunch of characters in the novel!
