Venice, January 29, 1996. A fire destroys one of the city's main symbols, the La Fenice opera house. What was already a catastrophe for Venetians becomes even worse with the revelation that the fire may have been arson. Arriving in the city three days after the events, journalist John Berendt becomes a detective of sorts, discovering that behind the stories of some of Venice's eccentric inhabitants may lie the answer to the mystery of the fire.
John Berendt is an American author, known for writing the best-selling non-fiction book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, which was a finalist for the 1995 Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction, and The City of Falling Angels, which tells the story of interesting inhabitants of Venice, Italy, whom Berendt met while living there in the months following a fire which destroyed the historic La Fenice opera house in 1996.
