Publisher's Summary:
Star-crossed lovers with a costly secret. As the plague grips Venice, more than a quarantine divides them....
Venice, 1510. Maria Bartolini wants nothing more than to carry on her father's legacy as a master gilder. Instead, her father has sent her away from the only home she's ever known to train as an apprentice to Master Trevisan, a renowned painter.
Maria arranges to leave the painter's workshop to return to her family workshop and to a secret lover waiting for her back home. But the encroaching Black Death foils her plans....
When the painter's servants uncover the real reason why Maria has been sent away to train with Master Trevisan, they threaten to reveal a secret that could tear down her family and the future of their trade. She is forced to buy the servants' silence, but as their greed steadily grows, Maria resorts to more desperate measures. She questions whether her heart's desire is worth risking her family, her trade, and her future, but Maria's sacrifices may amount to nothing if the plague arrives on her father's doorstep and steals away everything she's ever loved....
From the author of the award-winning The Gondola Maker comes a rich tale of Renaissance Venice, a heroine with a lust for life, and love against all odds.
Buy The Painter's Apprentice today to transport yourself to the vibrant and dangerous world of 16th-century Venice....

Very enjoyable!
Really enjoyed this one. There are tense, touching, and memorable moments throughout. The characters are convincing and vivid. The setting came to life.
Laura Morelli has that fine gift of a storyteller which I thoroughly enjoyed
Laura Morelli has that fine gift of a storyteller which I thoroughly enjoyed. She brought me into Venice in the Renaissance, breathinglife into distant history. Give me art, wrapped in historical fiction, and I am hooked! I am already looking forward to her next book.
