Carnival for the Dead: A Venetian Mystery by David Hewson
'In Carnival of the Dead, David Hewson conveys well the atmosphere of Venice and its bewildering maze of alleys between canals. He also recounts aspects of Venetian history with verve. He captures the changing light of Venice, which his heroine Teresa Lupo sees as Turner-esque, and he describes the paintings in churches and galleries with close attention to their details...Hewson nudges on the plot as it twists and turns with incidental characters and episodes. The story is exciting.'
--Sarah Curtis, TLS.
