A gripping standalone thriller by the New York
Times bestselling author of the Rizzoli & Isles
series In a shadowy antiques shop
in Rome, violinist Julia Ansdell happens upon a curious
piece of music—the Incendio waltz—and is immediately
entranced by its unusual composition. Full of passion,
torment, and chilling beauty, and seemingly unknown to the
world, the waltz, its mournful minor key, its feverish
arpeggios, appear to dance with a strange life of their own.
Julia is determined to master the complex work and make its
melody heard.
Back home in Boston, from the
moment Julia’s bow moves across the strings, drawing the
waltz’s fiery notes into the air, something strange is
stirred—and Julia’s world comes under threat. The music has
a terrifying and inexplicable effect on her young daughter,
who seems violently transformed. Convinced that the hypnotic
strains of Incendio are weaving a malevolent spell,
Julia sets out to discover the man and the meaning behind
the score.
Her quest beckons Julia to the
ancient city of Venice, where she uncovers a dark,
decades-old secret involving a dangerously powerful family
that will stop at nothing to keep Julia from bringing the
truth to light.
