Twilight in Venice (MIRA): 1

[this is a substantially re-written and abridged version of The Love Song of Lucy McBride]

As a teenager, Lucy McBride, is roused from her slumber by the sound of rich, haunting classical music coming from the stereo. It is a life changing moment and from that point she devotes herself to the study of the cello.

As a young woman, her fascination leads her to Venice, and to Fortuny, the master cellist who first enchanted her with his music. Thus begins the physical embodiment of an intense, ill-fated affair which began many years before. As emotions and desires tangle with hopes and dreams, both Lucy and Fortuny must struggle to decide how their symphony must end.
