An art historian named Angela Renatus is haunted by dreams about Leonardo Da Vinci and the mystery of his lost painting in Belle Ami's novel The Girl Who Knew Da Vinci. This piece of art doesn't exist, as far as anyone knows. Leonardo Da Vinci, Giuliano Medici, and his lover Fioretta Gorini are the focus of Angela Renatus' ongoing dreams.
Angela embarks on a quest to learn the truth, driven by her delusions.

The major plot revolves around the hunt for an artifact that could be by renowned painter Leonardo Da Vinci. The author, Belle Ami, employs a smart literary device to transport us back in time as she follows the picture and learns about its beginning, history, and hiding spots. Belle Ami skillfully connects the three distinct plot lines so that we never get lost. Along with several fascinating details about the periods and places, each of the three eras has a passionate love story.

At the Getty Gallery, where Angela is an intern, she meets Alex Caine, an art detective who finds stolen and missing works of art. When she learned that he was looking for the same picture, she was shocked. Rich banker Alex's client, Gerhard Jaeger, is committed to eradicating his uncle's bad reputation.
German commander Gerhard Jaeger vanished during World War II. Before going missing, he sent a letter outlining his connection to Sophia Caro, a stunning young Italian woman, and the finding of a stunning work of art that shows Giuliano Medici and Fioretta Gorini.

Angela accepts Alex's offer to go in search of the alleged Da Vinci artwork with him. She is able to leave her job and her lewd employer as a result. In her dreams, Angela frequently returns to the past. Her dreams and visions are gradually explaining the history and the artwork to her.

One aspect of the novel that I felt was a little inappropriate was how Belle Ami, the author, described the sexual sex scenes in great detail. Because of this, readers under the age of 18 should avoid reading the book. Nevertheless, it didn't make me like the book any less. It's a good read for adults.

The book was well written and excellently edited. I couldn't find anything wrong with it. So I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
I recommend this book to those who love historical fiction and mystery.
