Summary

When Charlotte wins a scholarship to a writing workshop in Venice with the charismatic and brilliant Luca Bruni, it's a dream come true. Writing is her passion, and going to that romantic and magical sinking city gives her the chance to solve a family mystery about a Venetian poet deep in their lineage, Isabella Di Angelo, who just might be the real author of a very famous poem. Bruni's villa on the eerie island of La Calamita is lush beyond belief, and the other students are both inspiring and intimidating. Venice itself is beautiful, charming, and seductive, but so is Luca Bruni. As Charlotte begins to unearth the long-lost work of Isabella with the help of a sweet and smart Italian boy named Dante, other things begin to rise, too, secrets about the past, and secrets about the present. What promised to be a summer filled with romance and mystery becomes something more as Charlotte confronts some deep truths about the history of powerful men, and about the determination of creative girls.
