When a diplomat falls from a yacht off the Amalfi Coast, two strangers inherit his secrets: a disgraced soldier with a forgotten past, and an heiress with nothing left to lose. Together, they uncover a spy network using the art world to launder secrets, trading in power, leverage—and lives. The Drowning Season is a slow-burn thriller about betrayal, buried truth, and the cost of remembering what the world wants to forget.
