Summary
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?

Fun twist on a family mystery, Richard Armitage as narrator is chefs kiss

I'm sure there might be an interesting story in here somewhere, but it didn't grab or hold my attention.

Great story. I really enjoyed the narrator.

Profile Avatar John N. Jun 2025

Thoroughly enjoyable. Good plot, great characters, extremely well written. Superbly narrated. Highly recommended.

Profile Avatar Jamie P. Sep 2025

The story is interesting with clever twists but the timeline is not always clear. For some reason the narration is pieced at times, with another narrator featuring out of context.

Exceptional narration brought the characters to life and a twist at the end was very clever.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jul 2025

Never got to the end....too many names and too many Italian names and references over whelming the story, which I'm afraid bored me to the point of sleep and repeat, until, I finally gave up.

Just couldn’t get into this book - mainly concerned with Italian cultural and political history and the murder of a present day professional historian / the narrator ‘was fine

Profile Avatar Mama Jess Jul 2025

Good narrator. The story was at times confusing, one has to keep in mind that the story is told by using flash backs. I loved the history and the description of my favorite city in the world: Venice. But listening to this book does take full concentration.
