Comments: I really like this book because it is very mysterious, especially where it is set- Venice, and you are dragged into the story very quickly before you even know it. And sometimes you feel like you were actually one of the interesting characters or if you and them have anything that is alike. I especially loved the part about the twisting and turning of the mysterious roads and streets of venice. I also really liked how the author describes the beauty and strande Venice. I sincerely recommend you all to read this thrilling book!
