| 2004: In historic Charleston, recently divorced art conservator Gamble Vance throws herself into her career restoring centuries-old miniature portraits. But one portrait haunts her: a woman in a fox stole, with familiar hazel eyes. When Gamble meets a girl in an alley, sheâ s convinced itâ s the same womanâ and itâ s not the first time theyâ ve met. For help, Gamble turns to African American Studies scholar Tolliver Jacksonâ a former foster kid with secrets of his own. But as Gambleâ s memories resurface, the pair discover a connection which may endanger more than one lifeâ ¦ in more than one lifetime. 1804: Miniature portraitist and fallen-away Quaker Daniel Petigru paints for Charlestonâ s high society. Daniel and his sister live with a free Black family, their connection long and complicated. When Gamble arrives from the future and her presence puts them all at risk, Daniel must decide if he loves her enough to let her go. THE MINIATURISTâ S ASSISTANT explores the mystery of time, how our choices ripple throughout history, and what it means to be a fully-realized womanâ in any century. |
