From the book information: At thirty three, Bill Fitzgerald, acclaimed American Television foreign correspondent, is war weary and exhausted after a long stint in Bosnia. In late November of 1995 he travels to Venice to meet Francis Xavier Peterson, an old friend and a war correspondent for Time Magazine, for some much needed rest and relaxation.
While at the bar of the Gritti Palace Hotel on Grand Canal with Frankie, Bill is struck by the dark beauty of a young woman seated alone at the other side of the bar. Unhappily married to show business lawyer Peter Smart, Vanessa Stewart is a twenty seven year old glass designer form New York who is in town to visit the glass blowing works in Murano. The three travellers decide that as Americans in Venice, they should celebrate Thanksgiving dinner together. That evening full of warmth and camaraderie begins an illicit though fateful love affair.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
I haven't read this. I saw the note about the sad ending and just wasn't in the mood for that kind of thing right now. So I released it in a Little Free Library and I am hoping someone will find it and enjoy it. I noticed a movie was made from this book.
