Title : The Antiques Merchant of Venice - Philippa Gregory - book
Summary :
From London to New England, via Venice, the troubled waters carry everything away, revealing secrets and enemies...
Summer Solstice Eve, 1670.
On the foggy London docks, Alinor has a meeting with James Summer, the man who abandoned her twenty years earlier. He wants to recover the one thing his fortune can't buy: their son, Rob, born of their love.
But the arrival of Livia, a young and all-too-charming widow, stirs up trouble. She claims to be Alinor's stepdaughter and that Rob drowned in Venice.
Alinor doesn't believe a word this so-called antiques dealer is saying.
For her, there is no doubt: her son is alive and Livia is hiding many secrets. But how can she prove it?
England, 1670. A perilous time for any independent woman...
