  The last decade of the fifteenth century, and Venice is the queen city of Europe. A member of the Venetian court and accomplished musician, Mathye, married the greatest seaman of them all - Giovanni Caboto. Mathye, her husband's cartographer, must struggle with her love and loyalty to the man who will betray La Serenissima by sailing under the name of John Cabot for Henry VII, the King of England. * Mathye's diary and written correspondence paint a dangerous world, a world of political intrigue, of powerful families, of music, art and religious life. * Revealing and compelling, this is the story of a courageous, passionate and intelligent woman; and of the treachery and tragedy of the high seas.
