A brand new historical murder mystery series set in 1600s Venice, filled with action, intrigue and romance, from the master of historical fiction.
In a city of masks, no one is what they seem . . .
Englishman Richard Hughes has survived a stint as a galley slave and is now a free man in Venice, where he enjoys a modest life as a fencing master.
He believes he has long-since left behind the ideals that landed him in slavery...until he stumbles across an attempted murder close to home. As he hunts for the red-masked assassin who is picking off the city's Libertini, Richard and his new rescued friend 'Philip' are drawn into a conspiracy that stretches from Venice to the Vatican and beyond...
This is the Venice of waterfront palaces, romance, Carnivale and gondolas - but also of sharp swords, lawless criminals and ruthless assassins; based on real events and richly brought to life by the master of historical fiction, Christian Cameron.
'Cameron is a true master of the genre . . . skilful, humorous and finely wrought' - Ben Kane, bestselling author of The Eagles of Rome series
'Agile and rapier-sharp' - Chris Lloyd, award-winning author of the Occupation series
'A masterclass in historical adventure' - Miranda Malins, author of The Rebel Daughter
