Donna Leon is an American author of a series of crime novels set in Venice and featuring the fictional hero Commissario Guido Brunetti. Donna Leon has lived in Venice for over twenty-five....
Read MoreThe crumbling grandeur of Venice has proved a magnet for the world’s crime writers and Donna Leon is one of the best at conveying the stench of corruption that rises from the city’s canals. The first Commissario Brunetti mystery, Death at la Fenice sets the scene for Leon’s rigorously plotted series perfectly. The twisted maze of Venice's canals has always been shrouded in mystery. Even the celebrated opera house, La Fenice, has seen its share of death ... but none so horrific and violent as that of world-famous conductor, Maestro Helmut Wellauer, who was poisoned during a performance of La Traviata. Even Commissario of Police, Guido Brunetti, used to the labyrinthine corruptions of the city, is shocked at the number of enemies Wellauer has made on his way to the top - but just how many have motive enough for murder? The beauty of Venice is crumbling. But evil is one thing that will never erode with age.
