Description
The first in a brand-new mystery series from the acclaimed author of The Killing and Devil’s Fjord, narrated by Richard Armitage.
Venice is a city full of secrets. For hundreds of years it has been the scene of scandal, intrigue and murderous rivalries. And it remains so today.
1548, Lorenzino de Medici, himself a murderer and a man few will miss, is assassinated by two hired killers.
Today, Marmaduke Godolphin, British TV historian and a man even fewer will miss, is stabbed by a stiletto blade on the exact same spot, his body dropping into the canal.
Can the story of the first murder explain the attack on Godolphin? The Carabinieri certainly think so. They recruit retired archivist Arnold Clover to unpick the mystery and to help solve the case. But the conspiracy against Godolphin runs deeper than anyone imagined.

A wonderfully descriptive book with a clever and intriguing storyline. I will take it with me next time I visit the enchanting city of Venice and drink in the atmosphere. Excellent narration.

Absolutely amazing and a fabulous book to thoroughly absorb you. The historic aspects were enthralling bringing to life an intriguing and beguiling part of history. The descriptions of locations, characters and food(!!) were simply great and the final twist was great!
