A thrilling sequel to THE UNDROWNED CHILD, full of mermaids, mourning and menace, in which Teo and Renzo must fight to save London and Venice from baddened magic.
Two summers ago, Venice was dying and an 11-year-old girl made her first (so she thought) visit to the city where she instantly felt she belonged. Teodora, it transpired, was the undrowned child, destined to save Venice from its long-standing enemy, Bajamonte Tiepolo, the traitor. According to a long ago prophecy, Teo and Renzo (the studious son) were the only people equipped to defeat the baddened magic that the traitor brought to the stricken city. But they couldn’t kill him – and so, subdued, but bitter, he returned to his shadowy existence.
