The Marked Daughter

Bear & Mandy Logan, Book 7

By: L.T. Ryan, K.M. Rought

Narrated by: Andrea Emmes, Michael Kramer

In Venice, the masks never come off.

Bear Logan wanted nothing more than to give his daughter a breather from the chaos of their lives. But when a desperate woman approaches them, claiming her husband vanished after uncovering a hidden mural, their quiet trip turns into a hunt through the shadows of Italy’s most treacherous city.

The mural is no ordinary artwork. Beneath its fading layers lies a code—one tied to La Velata Rossa, the masked enforcers of the Order of the Iron Serpent, a secret society that has shaped Venice from the shadows for centuries.

As Mandy’s eye for detail uncovers truths no one else can see, Bear realizes they’ve stumbled into a deadly game. The deeper they dig, the more dangerous their search becomes. Because the Order doesn’t just guard its secrets. It eliminates threats.

Now, Bear must navigate a labyrinth of lies, betrayals, and ruthless power plays to protect Mandy from an enemy they barely understand—an enemy who’s been watching far longer than they know.

In a city built on illusion, the truth can kill you.

Mandy’s internal struggles

A great Mandy and Bear story with plenty unexpected surprises. Great story line that again keeps you engaged to the point you never want it to end. Well written and beautifully executed showing the struggles of growing up from both parent and child perspectives!

The Cliches

Mandy has become annoying and doesn’t learn from past mistakes. She is evolving to superhero status to save the day. Bear continues to make the same mistakes a man of his training should not. This story line has become weak.
