When a well-known British TV historian, Marmaduke Godolphin, is found murdered in the canals of Venice during carnival, stabbed by a stiletto blade, the Venetian police are eager to have the case solved and cleared up within a day—murder is bad for tourism!

The police recruit the help of retired archivist, Arnold Clover. Godolphin had hired his services on arriving in Venice to help sort through some historical papers of note. These dusty documents may contain previously unknown information about the assassination of the murderer, Lorenzino de' Medici, 500 years previously.

How coincidental that Godolphin meets his death in the same place as the Medici murderer, Lorenzino, on a cold, dark, bloody night. Can Arnold use his powers of perception to establish a link and solve the murder of Godolphin?

Atmospheric "how done it" that follows Arnold Clover as he settles in to Venetian life. The pace meanders, but is well suited to the main character's style. Fans of Tom Mead and Peter Grainger should enjoy this.

Wonderful narrator and good plotting.

Excellent new series

David Hewson has done it again with his melodic storytelling, historic anecdotes, and an ending that readers won't see coming. What starts out as an interrogation of the retired archivist, Arnold Clover, for the murder of a TV historian soon becomes an unraveling of deceit, despicability, revenge, and conspiracy.

In audiobook form, it was superbly narrated by Richard Armitage, no surprise there.

"Storia means both History and Story in Italian"

Armitage was wonderful! He did an excellent job with both the male and female characters. The plot was twisty. Enjoyed the descriptions of Italy and the food. Definitely interested in the next book if the series, with Armitage voicing!

Much enjoyed

I think this might be my favorite David Hewson book to date. It's really amazing and the details make you feel you are right there, walking the streets of Venice and I can almost smell the amazing food described. The story is interesting on so many levels and the characters bring such life and diversity, expertly narrated by the brilliant Richard Armitage. It's such a wild ride and every time I thought I had it figured out, there was another twist and it had my attention until the very last word. I can't wait to read more about Mr. Clover's adventures in Venice and I was deeply touched by his relationship with his late wife.

Amazing!

The book was detailed but it paints Venice beautifully.

I’ve been to Venice several times but my most memorable was during Carnival.

Venice after most of the day tourists are gone can make one feel like one is in a parallel universe walking around at night. It’s hard to explain but as the main character describes the contradictions between history and present day along with the cultural differences and the fascination with the past is such a part of Venice as described.

It mentally was like listening to a foreign film with subtitles for me with the ability to rewind when needed.

I enjoyed the twists and the development of the characters with what made them tick.

Of course Armitage did an incredible job in his narration which one can always count on.

Interesting view of Venice

I could listen to Richard Armitage read the back of a cereal box. The story was a gem in that it kept my interest, doesn’t insult my intelligence, the characters are pretty believable — I find that lately some of this genre just pumps out the silliest stories with characters and plots that are rudimentary and ridiculous. This isn’t that.

Entertaining

Slow start, but builds nicely to the conclusion of a very believable complex mystery. Location details and lifestyles just a touch overdone. But overall, very enjoyable.

Intricate story

Richard Armitage’s narration is superb as always - he’s the reason I tried this audiobook. The story started off a bit slow, but grows satisfyingly over time.

Superb narration; slow-burn story that’s satisfying near the end

The reader is impeccable as always, one of my favorites. I loved the historical fantasy, but most of all the real tidbits about Venice. The mystery itself is a good yarn, although not mind boggling. The Capitano is a most delightful character.

Lovely historical mystery
