Description
The Venetian Candidate by Philip Gwynne Jones is set against the backdrop of Venice's uncertain future. As the city faces an uncertain future, the election of a new Mayor has never felt more important. A controversial writer and historian emerges as a strong candidate, while a young investigator delves into a decades-old mystery that links the past to the present. The trail leads from the streets of Venice to a remote war cemetery, where a discovery under the ice and snow reveals a dark connection between two seemingly unrelated events. As alliances are made and promises broken, the stakes grow higher, threatening not just the election, but lives. Philip Gwynne Jones's vivid writing transports readers to the city of water, weaving art, architecture, and intrigue into a story that builds to an almost surreal climax.
