The Venetian Legacy: Sofia Costa Book 4 (Sofia Costa Mysteries)

In Venice, the past never dies—it waits beneath the water. When a brilliant historian vanishes the night before unveiling Cold War secrets buried in the archives of a Venetian noble family, forensic polyglot and former Interpol agent Sofia Costa is pulled into a mystery as labyrinthine as the city’s canals. Sent to protect high-profile guests at a masquerade gala in a crumbling palazzo, Sofia quickly finds herself chasing more than stolen manuscripts. Someone is willing to kill to keep the past hidden—and Venice, with its fog-shrouded alleys and echoing cathedrals, is a city built for secrets. As Sofia unravels a conspiracy tied to a Cold War operation, she must navigate ancient languages and old, noble families. In a city where truth is masked and every shadow hides a betrayal, Sofia must decide what she's willing to sacrifice to uncover the killer—and the truth behind her family’s legacy. A haunting mystery of spies, secrets, and stolen history—perfect for fans of Daniel Silva, Kate Morton, and Agatha Christie in a Venetian mood.
