Summary

Struggling to forget a crumbling marriage, 40-year-old Anna Lucia Lottol comes to Venice to visit an old friend - but instead of finding solace, she is dragged into the police station and accused of murdering a money-laundering count with whom she had a brief affair. A US Treasury officer with brains and athleticism, Anna fights to clear her name in a seductive city full of watery illusions. As she works to pry information from a cast of recalcitrant characters sometimes denying what she sees and hears, she succeeds in unleashing a powerful foe bent on destroying her. Will she save herself and vanquish her enemies, including her darkest fears?

A captivating tapestry of murder, betrayal, and family, Venetian Blood is a story of one woman's brave quest for the truth - before it's too late.

"A riveting whodunit that makes full use of its dramatic setting." (Kirkus Reviews)

A truly gripping story

Murder, mystery, romance, Venice... Christine Evelyn Volker has combined all of these things to make a truly gripping story - I actually lost track of the time at several points. There is a lot about Venice (as there should be!), painting a vivid picture of "The Floating City", but the story stands front and centre. The characters are interesting enough to make me hope there will be a follow-up book. I want to know how everything pans out for them!

My thanks to the author and BookTasters. This review was written voluntarily and is entirely my own, unbiased, opinion.

Amazing listen!

I listened to this as an audiobook on Audible and I enjoyed it! Very intriguing and had me hooked. I don't usually like crime fiction but this one really kept me guessing. The voice acting is superb as well! A truly sensational and tension filled story, that captures the beauty and dark corners of Venice, Italy.
I recommend it to people who like a bit of romance and art with their crime fiction, a perfect listen for when I was running.
Got this free in return for an honest review.
