Years have passed since the initial success of her debut novel, and Frankie has spent her career trying to live up to the expectations of her editor and fans, only to fall short with each new publication. Now, after a particularly scathing review of her most recent work, alongside a very public breakdown, Frankie retreats to her friends vacant palazzo in Venice in the hopes of recapturing some of the inspiration that once motivated her. Then Gilly appears. A precocious young admirer eager to befriend her favorite author, Gilly seems determined to insinuate herself into Frankies solitary life. But theres something about the young woman that continues to give Frankie pause, that makes her wonder just how much of what Gilly tells her is actually the truth. Set against the catastrophic 1966 flooding of Venice, the encounters between these two women will ultimately lead to a series of lies and revelations that will tragically disrupt both of their lives. A gorgeously rendered and twisted tale of art and ambition, PALACE OF THE DROWNED is a literary thriller that asks just how far one is willing to go to achieve success.
