by Kathryn Walker (Author)

A debut novel that begins as a tale of loneliness and heartbreak yet opens into a dazzling, enchanting story of secrets and self-discovery in a magical city.

"A romance with heft and heart. Walker writes ... with amazing candor and insight." --The Boston Globe

Nel Everett, a young American woman, is touring Italy with her famous musician husband when, in a moment of fury, she pulls down her luggage and gets off the train. As her life speeds away down the tracks, Nel is marooned and on her own for the first time in eight years.

Bewildered, Nel returns to Venice where she encounters a tiny dog who leads her to a enigmatic stranger, a contessa, and a decaying Gothic palazzo. She is soon drawn into a world of charismatic characters, centuries of Venetian history, and the mystery of a lost masterpiece.
