You never know what’s going to change your life. A lucky break, a tragic hour, a chance meeting. And nothing is ever the same again.
For Samantha McLaren, a snarky comment from her older sister is the catalyst that inspires her to quit her meaningless job and jump headfirst into the unknown. Her road takes her to Rome, where she accepts the role of assistant to the owner of a contemporary art gallery. A whole new world of opportunity, a chance to start over, to learn a new language and meet new people, to become a better version of herself. Adventure, fulfillment, maybe even romance. It’s everything she could have hoped for.
Except—there’s the curse. Samantha’s predecessor disappeared eight months before, and since then no one has stayed in the position. Of course, it’s all nonsense.
And then there are the rumors. Salacious reports that her charismatic employer is much more than just her boss. There’s the disturbing offer of bribery. The threats when she refuses.
And then there’s a murder…
“Emily Senecal’s writing gives readers compelling, well-constructed plots that bring us deep into the lives of complex characters, and her narratives are accentuated by artistic imagery and a vivid sense of setting. The result is highly readable fiction that stays with the reader, writing one could classify as literary fiction just as easily as mystery.”
– Zack O’Neill, University of Houston Writing Fellow, former editor-in-chief of Yemassee Literary Journal
