BOOK DESCRIPTION
FROM DUST JACKET:
The society ball was George
Cautley's introduction to the London he had dreamed about, a world of
wealth, beauty, and wit, of patrons and scoundrels. It would also be his
introduction to the mysterious and beautiful Lady Petronella Beauclair ( and
through her the castrato singer Tristano), to seduction and mystery - and
ultimately to crimes the son of a clergyman could never have imaged. A gypsy
fortune teller had predicted at his birth that Cautley would become a
wealthy merchant or noble statesman; his parents assumed that he would
follow in his father's footsteps. Fate, however, had other things in store
for him.
From the internationally best selling author of Brunellesch's Dome, and of
the novel Ex Libris, Domino is a Rabelaisian journey into the hurly burly of
1770's London and Europe. Moving from the drawing rooms and country manors
of the city's finest, to Cautley's garret, to the magnificent opera houses
of Milan with their dark secrets. Ross King does more than paint a portrait
of a time long gone, he brings it to life with an immediacy that only the
finest historical writers can achieve. Suspenseful, menacing, and laced with
black humor, his picaresque tale is filled with surprises, victories, and
tragedies, mirth and murder, told with the pace of a thriller and the
richness of a restored old painting.
