I so enjoyed this book -- a smartly written novel set in Venice, and featuring the outstanding Commissario Brunetti. Terrific characters, and a finely twisted plot, very enjoyable reading. I love Brunetti, who's passionate, intelligent, wry, noble-hearted ... will definitely read more of Leon's novels featuring this wonderful detective!

Another great Donna Leon. Although I figured out the Death of Roberto was not what it appeared the twist was still very different then I expected. This story set the crime in the rich/business community of society.

This was my first time reading Leon. The setting, present day Venice, is still full of Venice's interesting history. Guido Brunetti is the Commissario of Police who is tasked with solving the murder.
