Laura
della Scala’s father has ordered her return home after previously forcing her to live at a convent in order to marry her dead sister’s fiancé, Vincenzo, a cruel and selfish man Laura wants
nothing to do with. In order to escape
this arranged marriage, she turns to the Segreta for help, a secret society of
women who deal only in secrets. After successfully averting the marriage, she sets
out to discover the truth of her sister’s death, a drowning she believes to be
no accident and gets caught up in the political intrigues of Venice.
