See what reviewers have to say about Venetian Vendetta, book two in the Tremayne Mystery Suspense series by bestselling author, Merryn Allingham:This is an intriguing historical mystery, and the protagonist is so complex and interesting, and the mystery so well done that you'll find yourself trapped between the pages.A breath of fresh air. And it isn't only because the author describes Venice really well. Yes, there is that, but we also have here a wonderfully strong heroine who continues to be true to herself even through setbacks... I'd strongly recommend this book.
A well-paced book with so many twists and turns that kept me guessing most of the way through.A brilliant gripping story which captures the reader from the very first page.
Not only does the city of Venice present romance and intrigue, it proves to be the perfect backdrop for the mystery, what with its long canals of water, the danger of flooding, the isolated islands, and the fog that comes with being by the sea... A delightful mystery.
Another beautifully written book by this author – the characters were great and the story so well thought out.Download for FREE the first in the series, The Dangerous Promise at https://merrynallingham.com/free-book/
