Here’s a look at the cover of the Italian edition of “The Venetian Game” which, I’m hoping, will be out in September.

The publisher, Newton Compton, always seem to have very striking covers and I’m extremely pleased with this. Now, some of you may have noticed that the Ponte dei Sospiri (a location which, shall we say, is not prominent in the book) takes pride of place on the cover. No, I don’t know why either! No matter, I still think it’s a lovely piece of work.
