Дворец утопленницы

The Italian backdrop feels so vividly woven into the story — I wonder if the author's travels or personal connections influenced this choice.

The gradual unraveling creates a sense of unease, but I’m curious whether this was a deliberate stylistic decision or just the flow of the narrative.

The characters seem to grapple with their pasts and secrets — did anyone else find themselves questioning what’s real versus what’s constructed?
