One of the most accomplished crime writers of his time, David Hewson pens internationally best-selling mysteries that never fail to resonate with readers. A standalone outing starring Teresa Lupo (of Hewson's Costa series), Carnival for the Dead finds the forensic pathologist in Venice searching for her missing aunt Sofia. Unable to locate her, Lupo instead discovers a piece of fiction inexplicably featuring her and her aunt-leading to deadly intrigue of a particularly Venetian flavor.
