There are 37 authenticated Vermeers. Or are there 38?
Rick Walters, an amateur genealogist, discovers the name Marie de la Motte in the archives. In 1666, Marie persuades Willem Bolnes — the brother-in-law of the famous painter Johannes Vermeer — to escape from a workhouse in Delft with her help. Where does their journey lead, and what secret do they carry?
Rick, along with Sandra Mulder, a well-known TV presenter, dives into the history of Willem and Marie, embarking on a search more thrilling than they ever imagined.
