Renaissance Italy becomes the final destination in the time travel series from the "masterful" national bestselling author of Lucasfilm's Alien Chronicles ( Extrapolations).

In Renaissance-era Italy, as rival houses of nobility use deception and murder to gain power and wealth, historian and time traveler Noel Kedran struggles against the machinations of his evil twin, Leon.

Thrust into sixteenth-century Venice, Noel arrives just in time to step into a trap set by his mad double. Sentenced to torture for a crime he didn't commit, Noel attracts the interest of a sorcerer who wants the mirror-image twins under his control. He will plunge Noel into a shadowy realm of terror, madness, and death.

There's only one person Noel can trust to help him survive—the very twin who has pledged to destroy him.
