Fools' Gold

ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
Luca Vero and his friends are plunged into the heady whirlwind of Venice, the world's busiest marketplace, where everything - and everyone - is for sale. Their mission from the Pope is no protection: this city has its own laws. Meanwhile, the Lady Isolde is in more danger than ever, and her feelings for Luca are becoming more intense.
As the friends face the unknown dangers of magic and alchemy, the crimes and politics of the city may become the least of their worries. The powers they confront are not of this world . . .
Praise for Changeling:
"This will be a romping and intriguing historical tale...spiffing stuff." Daily Telegraph
"A pacey and enjoyable read, with the promise of more unusual adventure and darker plotlines as the series moves on. " We Love This Book
"The atmosphere in this terrific YA novel is taut and compelling." Books Monthly
"Exciting first title in a new series...with attractive characters, several layers of mystery and, as one might expect, meticulously researched historical detail." Daily Mail
