I went back to Venice to write The Lizard’s Bite six years or so after writing Lucifer’s Shadow. Many of the locations are the same, so you may want to look at the larger picture gallery there.

But I also felt there were loose ends from Lucifer too, and it would be interesting to see how Costa and crew might tackle them.
