Summary
Under the guise of "Beto", 17-year-old Isabetta Bastian runs her father's successful shipping business. Her older brother sails their commercial galley between Venice and Lisbon, exporting luxury textiles and importing exotic spices obtained by the Portuguese. A heinous crime shatters her ideal life, and a risky attempt to save the family business ends in failure. Now, she is forced to live with the harsh consequences.
Resentment brews until she finally seeks the advice of her sophisticated neighbor, Veronica Franco. With the savvy courtesan's help, Isabetta devises a scheme to avenge her loved ones, but will her fall from grace be worth a brilliant vendetta?
Set amid sumptuous palazzos and lurking decay, this Renaissance mystery exposes the dark side of humanity.

revenge
Melissa Durbin narration was perfect
We have crime, passion, intrigue, false turns , a strong female lead. Isabetta has her father and brother murdered and seeks to avenge their deaths by solving the mystery of who murdered them alongside making a living for herself and her mother.
A great murder mystery with a twist.

Addictive - totally different so worth a credit
The cover and blurb do not do this audible justice - it was so addictive, with crime, passion, intrigue, false turns but also some historical facts (which seem to be very well researched).
I just had to keep listening to see what was going to happen and loved the ending and other bits, cant say any more due to spoilers.
The narration also suited it - I didn't find it too American like other reviewers.
I am so glad that I went out of my comfort zone to listen to this - so worth my time.
I was given a free copy by the author and the book club audible listeners but the review is entirely my own.
