Critics Review
Mesmerising
The arrival of a new Donna Leon book fills me with pleasurable anticipation. She tells a good story, including the best of all current police detectives, Commissario Brunetti, and locates it in a superbly described Venice. The plot is beautifully constructed. The climax is exciting and disturbing … Brunetti is as irresistible as ever * The Scotsman *
Donna Leon goes from strength to strength … This is her tenth novel but it’s as fresh and entertaining as the first * The Observer *
Mesmerising * Express on Sunday *
A splendid series … with a backdrop so vivid you can smell it * Sunday Telegraph *
Brunetti is hard to beat - Leon’s tenth novel more than maintains the standard of its predecessors * TLS *
