The Venice Illusion

In Venice, nothing is ever quite as it seems.

When celebrated sleuth Grace Whitmore arrives in the City of Canals, she expects a quiet interlude of gondolas, art, and masked pageantry. But behind the shimmering reflections of the lagoon lies a far darker truth. A famed illusionist's final performance ends in tragedy, and Grace is thrust into a labyrinth of deception, vanishing acts, and secrets hidden in plain sight.

As masked figures move in shadow and whispers echo through candlelit palazzos, Grace must untangle a web of lies where every clue is a trick of the light.

Is it murder, misdirection-or something far more sinister?

With Venice itself as both stage and trap, Grace races against time to pierce the illusion before she, too, disappears beneath the mask.

The Venice Illusion is a spellbinding addition to the Grace Whitmore Mystery series-perfect for readers who love intrigue, atmosphere, and a heroine who refuses to be deceived.
