Venice, 1612. An artist’s commission to paint the portraits of the most beautiful women in Venice leads to their murder -- by poison. After being selected as subjects of the portraits, a rabbi’s scholarly daughter and an elite courtesan must use their wits to unmask the murderer and outwit the powerful men who seek to control them and Venice. This is the first in the series of Venice Beauties, with the second novel, The Courtesan’s Secret to be published next summer.
