The Remedy

Set against the backdrop of 18th-century Venice and London, the novel intricately explores the lives of three interconnected characters amidst a world of murder and intrigue. Mimosina Dolcezza, a Venetian actress, navigates her role as an agent provocatrice while entangled with Valentine Greatrakes, a charismatic figure in London's medical scene. Their relationship is further complicated by Pevenche, an enigmatic child-woman whose mysterious fate is central to the unfolding narrative. Lovric's vivid prose brings this haunting tale to life.
