In this light-hearted and action-packed adventure for all ages, Gabriella Caprella, a young mouse with a singing voice like an angel, travels from her home in 1912 New York City to beautiful Venice to claim her inheritance as the new Contessa d’Asiago. With the help of her friend, the bat Mercurio, she fends off persistent suitors, nasty relatives, bloodthirsty vampires, and would-be usurpers, while learning to be a contessa worthy of House d’Asiago and pursuing her dream to sing at Il Gran Teatro La Sala, Venice’s most famous opera house. Gabriella’s life becomes even more complicated when she discovers her friendship with Mercurio, son and heir of King Icaruso--sworn enemy of earthbound creatures (aka “grounders”) and of House d’Asiago especially, is deeper and more confusing than she’d imagined. With danger lurking behind every wall and rafter, and the seemingly hopeless rift between the grounders and bats of Venice, will Gabriella and Mercurio survive to help heal the City? Or will they wind up floaters on the Grand Canal?
