The Scribe

Lavish masquerades, a mysterious woman inscribing messages on the necks of men, an ancient artifact and a demon gate about to be opened - all set against the backdrop of an industrialized Renaissance.

“The Scribe” is a literary thriller set in an Italian lagoon city during a slightly alternate 17th century. But what starts out as an adventure in a vibrant and to the reader at first mostly familiar setting soon transitions into a dark, twisted and fantastical world, where the demons on the outside are by far not as threatening as those we harbor within ourselves.
