A Stopover in Venice

family member: Gwyn
book: A Stopover in Venice by Kathryn Walker

This wonderful book is a story within a story. A woman boldly finds herself alone in Venice in modern times. There she encounters a group in search of the history of a found mural. Their friendship and support of her lead her to discover her own worth as she discovers the history of a woman from the past.

A knowledge of Venice would have enhanced this book for me. Even without that, I found this book to be tender mixture of history, discovery, and romance.

If any of you read it, let me know whether you enjoyed it too.
