Given my lifelong fascination with Renaissance Italy, I’ve written several historical mystery short stories featuring my fifteenth-century detective, real-life Florentine lawyer and diplomat Guid’Antonio Vespucci and his adventurous nephew, Amerigo Vespucci. Recently, I completed my first historical mystery novel with the Vespuccis as my investigators. To read the stories and a couple of nonfiction articles with a Florentine flavor, choose
