Mangan’ s first thriller was ‘Tangerine’, a sinister tale set in Tangier. Her new book takes place in Venice, around the floods of 1966: a young English writer has sought refuge there, trying to repeat her earlier literary success while distancing herself from her past. She is disturbed by the arrival of a woman claiming previous acquaintance with her. Atmospheric, creepy stuff.
