Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Clock and the Key
Our gondola, far out on the lagoon, hardly moved. But neither Jacqueline nor I, under the red and white striped awning, cared much, and Pietro even dared to light a cigarette.
Silver-gray dome, campanile, and spire gleamed through the golden haze that hung over the enchanted city. A great stillness was over all - only the ripple of Pietro's lazy oar, and faintly, very faintly, bells chiming.
