The view from the rooftop pool of the Venice Marriott resort this morning. Just look at the Dolomites.
Would be nice to do something rather special here for Venice Noir 2026 🤔

We’ve had such a lovely bunch of authors at our first Venice Noir and such great feedback. I asked Barbara Nadel author of the great Ikmen series in Istanbul if I could share the one she just set me.
Of course Barbara said yes. You’ve no idea how much this fires us up for Venice Noir 26
