About this listen

A spellbinding novel new to downloadable audio, from the best-selling author of A Woman of Substance.

Bill Fitzgerald is an acclaimed American television foreign correspondent. Exhausted after a long stint in Bosnia, he travels to Venice to meet Francis Xavier Peterson, an old friend.

Whilst at the bar of the Gritti Palace Hotel on the Grand Canal with Frankie, Bill is struck by the dark beauty of a young woman seated alone. Vanessa Stewart is a glass designer from New York who is visiting the glass-blowing works in Murano. The three expatriates meet and decide to celebrate Thanksgiving together. And that evening, full of warmth and camaraderie, begins an illicit though fateful love affair.

STILL A GRIPPING AND ENGAGING TALE OF A YOUNG GIRL

I read the book when it was first published, and listened to it again last year - and although the language is a little dated and formal the story of how a young girl from a poor background overcame many disadvantages with hard wok and ambition is still as relevant today as it was then. I find I absorb more information from the audio books than just reading a book, and this makes it far more entertaining. I really recommend this as a very good read!
