Description
Part Two of this fast-paced tale of aristocratic life in the17th century
Venetian Empire begins where Part One left off: the mercenaries arrive
in Solgrad to visit Resi and her new husband, Baron Mauro Baric.
You’ve
met the colorful characters of the House of Baric, witnessed their
loyal bonds of friendship, watched their willing romances, and wondered
what other family secrets will be revealed.
Mauro’s buried pain
can no longer be ignored. In Part Two: A Brother’s Defense, he must
face his demons. But first, his new brother-in-law’s arrival stirs up
trouble, while the elegant Venetian guests fill their idle time at Baric
Castle with new romantic pursuits.
Set in the summer of 1649,
this gripping saga of love, redemption, and revenge does not disappoint.
Questions will be answered, and more will come to light, as this
engaging trilogy speeds along. Swords will be drawn. The House of Baric
must be defended. But from whom?
A Note From the Publisher
Paperback ISBN: 978-1-943594-09-2
Advance Praise
“ . . This middle volume is of epic proportions in and of itself. Some
readers may lack the patience to wait for the tensions raised in the
first pages to come to blows a full hundred pages later. Likewise, the
passages devoted to things like the logistics of baking a marzipan cake
will likely not satisfy those hungry for sword fights and action. But by
the same token, Bald’s attention to the nuances of castle
life--including the dreams and labors of servants--is laudable. And in
the end, this trilogy is a grand drama. The conflicts, intrigues, and
romances among the cast of characters intensify, and readers who have
come this far should not only be compelled to read through to the end,
but be eagerly awaiting the final installment.” - Kirkus Reviews
"The
action and exotic settings of the novels are richly atmospheric; Venice
itself becomes almost another character. This is a delightful series,
and I finished the second book eager to read the third." - Historical
Novel Society Book Review
From Reader Reviews:
“This is a great story of action, adventure, and love.”
“What a great read … the book will keep you intrigued the entire time.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I can’t wait for the next book to come out!”
