Donna Leon has lived in Venice for many years and previously lived in Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Iran and China, where she worked as a teacher. Her previous novels featuring Commissario Brunetti have all been highly acclaimed; including Friends in High Places, which won the CWA Macallan Silver Dagger for Fiction, Through a Glass, Darkly, Suffer the Little Children, and most recently, The Girl of His Dreams.
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 *
