Waiting On Wednesday (14): Venom by Fiona Paul


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


Title: Venom

Author: Fiona Paul

Publisher: Philomel

Pages: 432

ISBN: 978039925725

Release Date: October 30, 2012
Description: Cassandra Caravello is one of Renaissance Venice’s lucky elite: with elegant gowns, sparkling jewels, her own lady’s maid, and a wealthy fiancĂ©, she has everything a girl could desire. Yet ever since her parents’ death, Cassandra has felt trapped, alone in a city of water, where the dark and labyrinthine canals whisper of escape.

When Cass stumbles upon a murdered woman—practically in her own backyard—she’s drawn into a dangerous world of courtesans, killers, and secret societies. Soon, she finds herself falling for Falco, a mysterious artist with a mischievous grin... and a spectacular skill for trouble. Can Cassandra find the murderer, before he finds her? And will she stay true to her fiancĂ©, or succumb to her uncontrollable feelings for Falco?

Beauty, love, romance, and mystery weave together in a stunning novel that’s as seductive and surprising as the city of Venice itself.
Why I'm excited: This book has an interesting premise, a gorgeous cover, AND it's part of the Debut Author Challenge. That's a triple threat right there. This year seems to have some amazing debuts releasing, so I hope this one is as good as it sounds!
