Set against the backdrop of the most beautiful city on earth, this is a gripping and atmospheric crime novel perfect for fans of Donna Leon and Andrea Camilleri.
__________________________________________
The city of Venice is alive with celebrations for Redentore, the most spectacular festival of the year. The streets are lined with revellers eating and drinking, and boats travel along the canals into the bacino of San Marco in anticipation of the firework display.
It's going to be a night to remember, and all the more so for Nathan Sutherland and his wife Federica, who have been invited to an exclusive party in the company of the British Ambassador.
The festivities take a turn, however, when Nathan suddenly finds himself struggling for breath and is rushed to hospital. Tests show he has all the symptoms of aconite poisoning, a toxin derived from the deadly wolfsbane plant.
An unfortunate accident? Or a deliberate attempt to poison him? As Nathan investigates, he discovers many guests might just have had a motive for murder . . .

Praise for Philip Gwynne Jones:
I devoured all Philip's novels Val McDermid
Clever and great fun
An irresistible concoction of crime and culture
As delightful as a Spritz by the Rialto - a must for all Italy lovers
Truly evocative
[A] sumptuously set mystery
Sinister and shimmering
The lively, colourful narrative scuds along as briskly as a water taxi...you'll enjoy the ride
The read of the summer . . . the humour and the film and music references add to the richness of a beautiful setting and well-crafted storytelling. Jones has a deep understanding of Italian life and culture while retaining that outsider's eye. The easy to read, highly entertaining style is perfectly judged. This may be the best in [the] series
