Venice is the perfect place to hoard secrets. Here the Shadow Queen has her lair, and she’ll gather her forces for a final battle. Marko and Sorrel are unwitting players in her Last Act as they search for their father, and try to stop the madness claiming hers. Seductive in setting and plot, this gothic novel of love and loss set in 18th century Venice is beautifully realised.
