  • Next Book: Title To Be Announced (December 1, 2009 release)

  • The Book of Unholy Mischief (December 30, 2008 release)
    Hardcover Book  Audio CD
    Elle Newmark's richly seductive prose brings to life the color and scandal of fifteenth-century Venice. Through Luciano, a street urchin apprenticed to a great chef in the palace of the doge, Newmark tells a wicked tale of political and papal intrigue. In Venice where every whisper is a secret or a lie, Luciano's initiation into the chef's spicy world makes for deliciously suspenseful listening.

    The Book of Unholy Mischief is more than terrific historical drama; its a love story, an investigation into ancient religious secrets that haunt us today, and its a story of intrigue replete with pulse-pounding chase scenes, murderous assassins, torture chambers and conniving, desperate characters. It's beautifully written, authentically detailed, and fiendishly well plotted. Listeners will want their friends to read or listen to it so they can talk about it over dinner in their favorite Italian restaurant.

  • Bones of the Dead (2007)
    In Venice, that beautiful old whore, everything is for sale except the doge's chef. When streetwise Luciano becomes the chef's apprentice, he discovers that powerful men are plotting to unearth an ancient book rumored to contain thorny heresies, love potions, alchemy, and even the secret of immortality. Everyone believes the elusive book holds the thing they want most.

    Luciano wants only Francesca—lush as a plum but locked in a convent. His quest takes him from the life of a street thief in the Rialto to the opulence of the doge's palace, and eventually sends him fleeing for his life through the dark calli of renaissance Venice.

    Intrigue escalates and schemes thicken like stew while the enigmatic chef uses metaphorical soufflés and mysterious sauces to guide Luciano through a dangerous but delicious maze. Luciano learns there might be a few things worth dying for, and the chef knows what they are.

  • The Cloud Forest (Future release)
    Based on Elle treks through the rainforests of Costa Rica.

  • The Devil's Wind (Future release)
    Based on Elle's explorations of India by car and elephant.
