About this audiobook
In the heart of Renaissance Italy, a young woman’s faith is tested by the corrupting influences of power and the raw intensity of forbidden love. Against the backdrop of a city in the throes of religious transformation, she must navigate a dangerous path between her heart’s desire and her spiritual convictions. It is a lush historical drama that captures the beauty and the brutality of a world in transition.
