Summary:
"It's the night of 12 November 2019. The worst flooding in 50 years hits the city of
Venice
. 85% of La Serenissima is underwater. Gale force winds roar across the lagoon and along the narrow streets. And the body of Dr Jennifer Whiteread -- a young British art historian, specialising in the depiction of
angels
in Venetian painting -- is found floating in a flooded antique bookshop on the Street of the Assassins. As the local police struggle to restore order to a city on its knees, Nathan Sutherland -- under pressure from the British Ambassador and distraught relatives -- sets out into the dark and rain-swept streets in an attempt to discover the truth behind Whiteread's death. The trail leads to the "Markham Foundation", a recent and welcome addition to the list of charities working to preserve the ancient city. Charming, handsome and very, very rich, Giles Markham is a well-known and popular figure in the highest Venetian social circles, and has the ear of both the Mayor and the Patriarch. But a man with powerful friends may also have powerful enemies. And Nathan is about to learn that, in
Venice
at least,
angels
come in many forms -- merciful, fallen and vengeful..."--Publisher.
