Longlisted for the 2025 McIlvanney Prize
An atmospheric and evocative historical thriller set against the backdrop of the Medici dynasty in 1530s Renaissance Italy from CWA Historical Dagger-winning author D. V. Bishop.
The fate of a dynasty rests on his shoulders, if he can make it out alive...
Venice. Winter, 1539. When Cesare Aldo learns of a conspiracy to assassinate Duke Cosimo de' Medici, he is hired to protect the ruler of Florence. With his life if necessary. The deadly attack which follows leads to bodies, bloodshed--and something far more dangerous.
Those behind the plot obtain a journal of the duke's which contains explosive secrets that, in the wrong hands, could destroy all of Florence. Aldo must hunt down those responsible and reclaim the journal, or face banishment from the city and everyone he loves.
The trail leads him towards the one place Aldo has sworn to never return, a city of masks and lies where he has no allies and far too many enemies: Venice.
Carnival of Lies is the fifth Cesare Aldo mystery, preceded by City of Vengeance, The Darkest Sin, Ritual of Fire, and A Divine Fury.
