Palace of the Drowned by Christine Mangan

3.0

Frankie is a famous author, best known for her debut work. Two novels later, her spark seems to have dimmed, so she's headed to Venice to get away for a while and get inspired for the looming deadline for her next book she owes her editor. While in Venice, a young woman claims to know her and becomes almost stalker-like. The girl's charisma overwhelms Frankie and she starts spending more time with her. All the while, a storm is brewing, one that will flood Venice at the worst time and make Frankie question her own sanity as she navigates reconciling her old friends with her new one. Spooky and somewhat unsettling.
