When Jasmine’s last relative dies, she’s left with a mystery—an old tarot card called “Il Tempo” and a key. Through her aunt’s lawyer, she learns this key comes with a house along Canal Grande in Venice, Italy. After she pays her inheritance a visit, she quickly realizes the house is more than crumbling brick and mortar—it’s a gate. Once a year, during the peak of the Carnivale di Venezia, a gate opens onto an ephemeral world of decadence, a world peopled with demons, masqueraded lovers and assassins, a world where a mask can hide much more than a face. Contains violence and sexual content. This book was previously published as Book of Masks
