What to expect

A sudden act of vandalism had just been committed in the chill Venetian dawn. But Commissario Guido Brunetti soon finds out that the perpetrator is no petty criminal. For the culprit waiting to be apprehended at the scene of the crime is none other than Paola Brunetti, his wife.

As Paola's actions provoke a crisis in the Brunetti household, Brunetti himself is under increasing pressure at work: a daring robbery with Mafia connections is linked to a suspicious death and his superiors need quick results. As his professional and personal lives clash, Brunetti's own career is under threat - and the conspiracy which Paola had risked everything to expose draws him inexorably to the brink ...

Critics Review

Donna Leon has established Commissario Guido Brunetti as one of the most engaging of fictional detectives ... Brunetti is ... back on track, sadder perhaps, but wiser and wittier than ever
Sunday Times
A splendid series ... with a backdrop of the city so vivid you can smell it
Sunday Telegraph
One of the most exquisite and subtle detective series ever
The Washington Post
No one knows the labyrinthine world of Venice . . . like Leon's Brunetti
Time
[Brunetti's] humane police work is disarming, and his ambles through the city are a delight
The New York Times Book Review
The sophisticated but still moral Brunetti, with his love of food and his loving family, proves a worthy custodian of timeless values and verities
The Wall Street Journal
A masterly tale ... intriguing, fast-moving, and beautifully crafted

Donna Leon can paralyse the reader with a joyful suspense, lost in the environs of Venice and hopelessly in love with her central character and his wife
