Rendezvous in Venice

Rendezvous in Venice by Philippe Beaussant

Pierre thought he knew his Uncle Charles well. Yet after Charles' death, Pierre finds a diary in which his uncle confessed to a secret, heartbreaking love affair. Pierre's search for the truth leads him to Judith, the woman his uncle so passionately loved, and when he meets her daughter Sarah, he finds that his own life will be changed forever.
