'The body floated face down in the murky water of the canal. Gently the ebbing tide tugged it along towards the open waters of the laguna that spread out beyond the end of the canal-'Early one morning Guido Brunetti, commissario of the Venice Police, confronts a grisly sight when the body of a young man is fished out of a fetid Venetian canal. All the clues point to a violent mugging, but for Brunetti robbery seems altogether too convenient a motive. Then something very incriminating is discovered in the dead man's flat, something which points to the existence of a high level cabal - and Brunetti becomes convinced that somebody, somewhere, is taking great pains to provide a ready-made solution to the crime.

Donna Leon has a way of taking you to Venice, leading you through the streets and solving crimes that seem impossible. ALWAYS a good read!! We have been reading her since the beginning and look forward to each new creative work.

I enjoyed reading this new author. I was in Venice for 3 days in 2006, so this was fun and brought back some fun travel memories. I am looking forward to reading other Donna Leon books...it's interesting to get perspective on other countries via a good book.
