Hidden Cities · #3
The Chamber of Ten
From two masters of dark fantasy comes a chilling tale of magic and
possession, set in — and beneath — fabulous Venice, a city slowly being
swallowed by the very waters that have made it one of the wonders of
the world.
Geena Hodge is an American archaeologist working
to salvage Venice’s past from the encroaching Adriatic Sea. When she
and her lover, Nico, discover the lost library of Petrarch under the
Piazza San Marco, they rejoice not only at the historical significance
of the find but at the opportunity to bring worldwide attention — and
much-needed funding — to their endeavors.
But that find soon leads to another, a room buried more deeply still: the fabled Chamber of Ten,
where centuries ago the secret rulers of Venice, in their quest for
absolute power, met to plot betrayals and murders. After entering the
Chamber, Geena and Nico are thrust into the midst of an ancient feud, a
deadly battle of wills and black magic that threatens to poison the
city’s future with the evils of its past.
