The body of a CIA operative, code-named the Venetian, is discovered floating in the Fort Pierce Inlet. Five thousand miles away in Venice, the body of the Museo Correr’s custodian is found floating in the Grand Canal. The two grisly murders are inextricably linked to the past and to—Marco Polo.
 
HISTORICAL SUB TEXT: Drawn from personal interviews in Italy and China with Siro Polo Padolecchia, the last (34th) surviving descendent of Marco Polo and former Ambassador of Italy at the United Nations.
