description: Each year, Carnevale transforms Venice into a wonderland of color and spectacle. From the Piazza San Marco to the Grand Canal, costumed celebrants cavort with wild abandon. Anything can happen... even murder.When the brutalized corpse of an English photographer is discovered in a dirty alley used for illicit rendezvous, expatriate American author Urbino Macintyre is asked to discreetly investigate. And now death is following Urbino down a twisted trail of blackmail, jealousy and deceit that weaves its way through the festive madness--as he races to unmask a killer before the revelry ends at the stroke of midnight.
