Description
A teenage girl's life was forever changed when she fell into a canal, surviving only to suffer irreparable brain damage. Fifteen years later, her grandmother, a wealthy patroness, asks a detective to investigate the circumstances of her granddaughter's fall. Brunetti is drawn into the case, driven by a mix of curiosity, pity, and a desire to fulfill the wishes of a guilt-wracked older woman. As Brunetti delves into the case, he uncovers a complex web of concerns and stories that reflect the rhythms and concerns of contemporary Venetian life. From historical preservation to the arrival of new waves of African migrants, the detective must navigate the city's intricate social landscape to uncover the truth. The Waters of Eternal Youth is a haunting and thought-provoking mystery that explores the human condition and the lasting impact of trauma.
