Sharp, witty, and slightly bloody, this is a story about the frequencies of beauty, the chaos of fate, and the danger of getting exactly what you wished for.

Isadora has a brilliant mind, a successful digital career, and a massive problem: she was born in the wrong century. Obsessed with the Italian Renaissance, she spends 2026 chasing shadows, until a mysterious Victorian "trick box" hands her a literal key to the past.

From the foggy secrets of London’s Brompton Cemetery, Isadora is about to find out more than what she is willing to know, or ready to handle.

If you think the secrets of the universe are found in dusty libraries, think again.

Equal parts romance, mystery, and dark humor, Ortensia’s Ghostly Memories is a spirited adventure through the heart of Italy. An Italian tale about life, death and love...despite Italian males.

Ortensia never expected her vacation to include a face-to-face encounter with the afterlife. But when she meets the spirit of Giacomo Casanova’s charming (and very deceased) cousin, her life takes a turn for the supernatural.

She will discover thar beyond the silk-draped glamour of Lake Como lies a world of ancient superstitions and lingering secrets, and that she is the only one who can break a dark curse, a vengeful spell that has haunted the Casanova bloodline for generations.

From the sun-drenched shores of Tremezzo to the mysterious depths of a forgotten crypt, Ortensia embarks on a journey filled with wit, fine wine, and forbidden truths. Can she free the ghost and save herself, or will she succumb to the suffocating weight of an Italian past that refuses to stay buried?
