Description
Brunetti is on top form in this engaging mystery, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. A seemingly insignificant event sets off a chain of investigation that delves into the complexities of a hidden world.
A street vendor's murder in a crowded Campo Santo Stefano on a cold Christmas night sets off a complex web of intrigue. As Commissario Brunetti digs deeper, he uncovers a world of moral ambiguity and great value at stake.
This thoughtful and nuanced portrayal of a lesser-known world is a testament to Donna Leon's skill as a writer. A gripping and engrossing read that will keep you turning the pages.
