Mysteries, inventions, and Venetian masks — a new chapter in the saga that travels through time and sparks the imagination.
In 18th-century Venice, every passerby hides behind a mask, their secrets buried deep in the city’s shadowy alleys. Peter Dedalus, the brilliant inventor from Kilmore Cove, seems to have taken refuge here, wrapped in the mystery of a broken promise. And the only one who knows where he’s hiding is the enigmatic Black Gondolier, who will lead Jason, Julia, and Rick into a new and unexpected adventure… Unless Oblivia gets there first.
