The Venice Mystery

Sortland, Bjørn: Venezia-mysteriet

In the hotel where David and his family are staying, they meet a strange, elderly couple. There is something mysterious about them - and about all of Venice, for that matter. It is carnival time, and many people are wearing weird masks, and some are harbouring sinister plans...

This is the first book in the popular "Art Detective" series, which combines thrilling reads with art and geography in an interesting and fun way. All books are amusingly illustrated by Trond Bredesen.
