Product Description

Product Description

a chilling supernatural thriller played out amongst the evocatively conjured canals and alleyways of Venice, as spirits centuries old are re-awakened by the discovery of a mirror at an archaeological dig. And the archaeologists' seven-year-old daughter is what these spirits need...

"If you're a fan of Venice's darker aspects and like to be a little disturbed at times you're in for a treat here. " - Jeff Cotton Fictional Cities

"The novel is highly atmospheric, filled to the brim with Venetian locales...A well-written tale with a luscious setting..." Kirkus Reviews

"'Venetia' is a bit like Dan Brown's 'Angles and Demons' transferred to Venice. A highly entertaining mix of fact and fiction... it would make a great travel companion for anyone in need of a page-turning guidebook to Venice." Mette - Italian Notes

"The writing was fluid and clever, weaving in the supernatural elements of the story so cunningly, you never knew it was there until it jumped up on you. " - Miranda Stork Goodreads

"I found it to be a real page turner and read it quickly, anxious to find out how it would end.,, " - Martha Bakerjian About.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific read on many levels 6 Aug 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
There is so much to enjoy about this book. There is the story which moves along at a cracking pace, keeping your interest from page to page right to the end. The real and the supernaturals worlds are woven together with great skill. The language is clear and dotted with original and beautiful phrases, highly visual - I saw everything as if in a film - full of colour, light and dark. The characters are varied and interesting. I particularly enjoyed the descriptions of Venice - not only could I see it - I could hear footsteps echoing around the maze of streets and canals and feel the increasing cold and damp as winter approached.

It's a book that will appeal to a wide range of readers, not just fans of the supernatural, because it tells the ancient story of the struggle between good and evil.

I highly recommend it.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I had high hopes about this book after reading the reviews but found it dissapointing.I love a good thriller and the idea behind this book was good but it lacked punch and excitement,i read on waiting for the twist in the tale but it never happened.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good read 18 April 2013

I thoroughly enjoyed this especially as I started it in La Serenissima and so could identify with many of the locations.
I would try another book by this author - not classic literature by any means but a good holiday read.
