Florentine investigator Guid'Antonio Vespucci returns to Italy from a government mission to find his dreams of peace shattered. Marauding Turks have abducted a young girl and sold her into slavery. Equally disturbing, a revered painting of the Virgin Mary is weeping in Guid'Antonio’s family church. Are the tears manmade or a sign of God’s displeasure with Guid'Antonio himself?

In a finely wrought story for lovers of medieval and renaissance mysteries everywhere’ Guid'Antonio follows a spellbinding trail of clues to uncover the thought-provoking truth about the missing girl and the weeping painting’s mystifying tears’ all pursued as he comes face to face with his own personal demons.

Color, intrigue, and elegant prose bring the 15th-century City of Flowers to life. -Brenda Rickman Vantrease, Bestselling Author of The Illuminator and A Far Horizon
