Book 10 in a series of chronological stand-alone plots.
February 1900, Venice. At the request of the Marchesa di Malaga, Dr Watson and Countess Volodymyrovna have agreed to investigate the curious death of a husband on his wedding night. Assisting with the baffling post mortem is Dr Cagliari - whose island asylum was once a burial ground for countless plague victims. As the night of Mardi Gras draws close, Watson holds a grave fear for the health of his sleuthing companion after she spends a stormy night trapped on the island - and even starts believing in the sinister power of the evil eye.
Can they solve this locked room mystery?
Will they uncover the true power of superstition?
Can they survive the Mardi Gras madness?
