Maestro (English Edition)

The spoiled daughter of a count, stands falsely accused and sentenced to hang.

Disgrace: When bright and curious Gabriella discovers passion beyond her music in the arms of a handsome stable hand, she brings shame on two noble families. Her parents send her to a school for orphan girls in Venice, the Ospedale della Pieta. Leaving behind her home and family, Gabriella knows she is saying goodbye to her hopes of a respectable marriage.


Passion: At the school, Gabriella teaches music, the passion of her soul, to the young students while she and her new friend Veronica share their love of music with the Maestro of the Ospedale, Antonio Vivaldi. The brilliant Maestro inspires and is inspired by his fellow teachers, but is forced by his vows to the church to seek satisfaction only in the music. Rejected by Vivaldi, Gabriella falls in love with the handsome overseer who returns her feelings despite her past.


Murder. An ancient curse is said to haunt the Ospedale. Gabriella, far too intelligent to believe in such things, vows to find the source of tragic deaths that plague the school. While she searches, Veronica's dark secrets are revealed. Unhinged, Veronica blames her friend and seeks revenge framing Gabriella for murder. Condemned to hang, will Gabriella's friends save her or will her life end on the gallows?
