Stravaganza City of Flowers

SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY

Stravaganza City of Flowers

The third gripping book in the series, taking the reader into two vivid worlds – one our own, one parallel to ours and very similar to 16th-century Italy. Passion, intrigue, drama and adventure – enter the world of Stravaganza. Sequel to City of Masks and City of Stars, the narrative moves to the Talian equivalent of the city of Florence, where beauty and danger walk – as ever – hand in hand. The focus this time is on the new Stravagante, Sky, whose talisman is an ornate and delicate blue glass bottle. Sky is propelled right into the midst of a deadly feud between the di Chimici and Nucci families, who think nothing of sliding a knife between a man’s ribs for revenge.
