The Book of Secrets is a thrilling and unputdownable new novel from bestselling author Anna Mazzola, set in 17th century Italy. The story follows Girolama Spana, a mysterious woman who lives west of the river Tiber in a house marked by a lily and a garden full of herbs. Many women in Rome seek her help for her mysterious balms, love potions, and ability to predict their futures. However, when men are reported dying in unnatural numbers, the gaze of Stefano Bracchi, prosecutor for the papal authorities, falls quickly on Girolama and her suspected sorcery. Girolama has always vowed that in life there are secrets we write down, secrets we pass on, and some that we carry to our deaths. The Book of Secrets is inspired by real events that took place in 17th century Italy and has received praise from critics for its exceptional writing, dark, viscerally-atmospheric and richly-imagined setting, and compelling, brilliant and rage-inducing plot. It blends a colourful historical setting with the pace of a crime thriller and is deeply unsettling in all the best ways. The Book of Secrets is a gripping novel that will keep readers hooked until the very end.
