Description
The celebrated Venetian detective returns in his 31st case in a year of celebration for his author, Donna Leon.
Donna Leon has been giving unto us for all of the thirty years since Death at La Fenice introduced us to Brunetti — Val McDermid
Crime writing of the highest order — Guardian
The gifted Venetian detective returns in his 31st case — this time, investigating the Janus-faced nature of yet another Italian institution. Brunetti will have to once again face the blurred line that runs between the criminal and the non-criminal, bending police rules, and his own character, to help an acquaintance in danger.
Both tremendously enjoyable and deeply humane — Jessie Greengrass, Costa-shortlisted author of The High House
Leon's elegant, witty prose . . . is a joy — Amanda Craig
