The Mirror Thief is an interwoven tale of cunning and intrigue that spans three distinct timelines, all linked by the mystique of Venetian mirrors. In 16th-century Venice, in the midst of a groundbreaking advancement in glass-making—the creation of the mirror—a skilled craftsman risks everything to circumvent the totalitarian grip of the Council of Ten, which forbids the export of the revolutionary technology under the penalty of death. Centuries later, in 1950s Venice Beach, California, and present-day Las Vegas, two new stories of subterfuge and deception unfold as characters plot to safeguard their clandestine pursuits. Each narrative is masterfully intertwined, guiding readers through a richly layered odyssey that culminates in a gripping finale set in the original, labyrinthine waterways of Venice. The Mirror Thief calls upon the intricate beauty of mirrors to reflect the human penchant for obsession and the lengths to which one will go for preservation of secrets.
