Editorial Reviews

"This is a charming and delightful story told with a gentle but dry wit but held together with firm plotting where all loose ends are tied up... Highly recommended."

Promoting Crime Fiction Blog Radmila May

"Plenty of first-rate meals may be vicariously enjoyed along with copious wine drinking and chain smoking as this delightful romp takes readers through the streets, canals and bridges of Venice."
