Plot Summary

John and Laura Baxter are in Venice when they meet a pair of elderly sisters, one of whom claims to be psychic. She insists that she sees the spirit of the Baxters' daughter, who recently drowned. Laura is intrigued, but John resists the idea. He, however, seems to have his own psychic flashes, seeing their daughter walk the streets in her red cloak, as well as Laura and the sisters on a funeral gondola. Written by James Meek

Trivia Renato Scarpa, who plays Inspector Longhi, didn't speak any English: he just read the lines he'd been given without knowing what they meant. This added to the sinister quality of his character. See more »
Goofs When Laura leaves the hotel near the end to pursue John, she is wearing boots but is barelegged. Later in the chase as she scrambles over a boat, she is wearing the same boots but is now also wearing dark colored stockings/tights. See more »

Quotes John Baxter: What are you reading?
Laura Baxter: I was just trying to find the answer to a question Christin was asking me: if the world's round, why is a frozen lake flat?
John Baxter: Huh. That's a good question.
Laura Baxter: [flipping through a book] Ah-ha. "Lake Ontario curves more than 3 degrees from its eastern most shore to its western most shore." So, frozen water really isn't flat!
John Baxter: Nothing is what it seems.
