Reviews
Praise for Donna Leon''s Commissario Guido Brunetti Mysteries: "[Leon] has never become perfunctory, never failed to give us vivid portraits of people and of Venice, never lost her fine, disillusioned indignation." --Ursula K. LeGuin, New York Times "You become so wrapped up in these compelling characters . . . Each one is better than the last." --Louise Erdrich, PBS NewsHour "Donna Leon''s Venetian mysteries never disappoint, calling up the romantic sights and sounds of La Serenissima even as they acquaint us with the practical matters that concern the city''s residents." --Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review "Few detective writers create so vivid, inclusive, and convincing a narrative as Donna Leon . . . One of the most exquisite and subtle detective series ever." -- Washington Post "The sophisticated but still moral Brunetti, with his love of food and his loving family, proves a worthy custodian of timeless values and verities." -- Wall Street Journal "[Leon] uses the relatively small and crime-free canvas of Venice for rips about Italian life, sexual styles and--best of all--the kind of ingrown business and political corruption that seems to lurk just below the surface." -- Chicago Tribune "Hers is an unusually potent cocktail of atmosphere and event." -- New Yorker "For those who know Venice, or want to, Brunetti is a well-versed escort to the nooks, crannies, moods, and idiosyncrasies of what residents call La Serenissima, the Serene One . . . Richly atmospheric, [Leon] introduces you to the Venice insiders know." -- USA Today "Donna Leon is the undisputed crime fiction queen . . . Leon''s ability to capture the social scene and internal politics [of Venice] is first-rate." -- Baltimore Sun "Terrific at providing, through its weary but engaging protagonist, a strong sense of the moral quandaries inherent in Italian society and culture." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Brunetti is one of the most attractive policemen in crime fiction today." -- Philadelphia Inquirer "As always, Brunetti is highly attuned to (and sympathetic toward) the failings of the humans around him." -- Seattle Times "Leon''s writing trembles with true feeling." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Leon started out with offhand, elegant excellence, and has simply kept it up." -- Guardian "Compassionate yet incorruptible, Brunetti knows that true justice doesn''t always end in an arrest or a trial." -- Publishers Weekly "[Brunetti] is a superb police detective--calm, deliberate, and insightful as he investigates with a reflective thoroughness." -- Library Journal "The appeal of Guido Brunetti, the hero of Donna Leon''s long-running Venetian crime series, comes not from his shrewdness, though he is plenty shrewd, nor from his quick wit. It comes, instead, from his role as an Everyman . . . [his life is] not so different from our own days at the office or nights around the dinner table. Crime fiction for those willing to grapple with, rather than escape, the uncertainties of daily life." -- Booklist "It''s difficult to describe the work of Donna Leon other than in superlatives . . . An annual blessing, a fine series--one of the finest (see what I mean) in the mystery (or any) genre . . . There are few reading joys that equal cracking the binding of a new Leon novel . . . If you have not experienced this world, so exotic and yet so familiar, you can pick up literally any volume in the series and begin a comfortable entry into Brunetti''s Venice." -- BookReporter "One of the most popular crime series worldwide . . . While the Brunetti books, with their abundance of local color and gastronomic treats, appeal to the fans of the traditional mystery, Leon has something darker and deeper in mind." -- Life Sentence "No author has delved into Venetian society quite like Leon, whose insider''s view shows how crime seeps throughout the city, touching all strata of society." -- Mystery Scene

Synopsis
A woman's cryptic dying words in a Venetian hospice lead Guido Brunetti to uncover a threat to the entire region in Donna Leon's haunting twenty-ninth Brunetti novel, When Dottoressa Donato calls the Questura to report that a dying patient at the hospice Fatebenefratelli wants to speak to the police, Commissario Guido Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, waste no time in responding. "They killed him. It was bad money. I told him no," Benedetta Toso gasps the words about her recently-deceased husband, Vittorio Fadalto. Even though he is not sure she can hear him Brunetti softly promises he and Griffoni will look into what initially appears to be a private family tragedy. They discover that Fadalto worked in the field collecting samples of contamination for a company that measures the cleanliness of Venice's water supply and that he had died in a mysterious motorcycle accident. Distracted briefly by Vice Questore Patta's obsession with youth crime in Venice, Brunetti is bolstered once more by the remarkable research skills of Patta's secretary, Signora Elettra Zorzi. Piecing together the tangled threads, in time Brunetti comes to realize the perilous meaning in the woman's accusation and the threat it reveals to the health of the entire region. But justice in this case proves to be ambiguous, as Brunetti is reminded it can be when, seeking solace, he reads Aeschylus's classic play The Eumenides . As she has done so often through her memorable characters and storytelling skill, Donna Leon once again engages our sensibilities as to the differences between guilt and responsibility., From the New York Times bestselling author of Unto Us a Son is Given , comes one of her most dark and thrilling mysteries yet.

    When I'd originally placed this order, I had accidentally put in the wrong shipping address. However, the seller was more than helpful, and the CD arrived!! The packaging was wide open when it arrived, but luckily nothing was damaged. Additionally, there was nothing protective on the CD, so that open package made me feel kind of nervous. Otherwise, absolutely great! The customer service was awesome, and the product was as described.

    Item was lost in delivery- but after some communication, seller was understanding and provided a refund. I ordered another and had it sent elsewhere. My main issue was that it felt as if I was getting automated responses at first!! Please have humans review human inquiries!! It was painstaking explaining the situation to an A.I. who only repeats unhelpful replies. Thanks again!! Otherwise. Great price! Great seller!

    Although I received the incorrect book with my order (that had a title close to what I had ordered), AlibrisBooks apologized, said they could not re-send the book, and refunded my money and told me to keep the book that I had received, and either donate it or give it away, so I gave it to someone. That was very kind on their part to do that, and I would highly recommend them. Mistakes happen I get that.

  • Trace Elements is a great read set in modern day Venice

    The plot is somehat given away by the title, but the ending has a great twist!! Superbly written and compelling, Comissario Brunetti shows his peeves as well as his small pleasures in modern Venice, I highly recommned reading this series in order.
