What Members Thought
I've read a few books in the Commissario Guido Brunetti series and so far I like them, although tend to be a bit too graphic and violent. So I don't read them too often, but I find myself coming back for the descriptions of life in Venice and to learn more about the main characters. This story was interesting and a fairly quick read. Perfect for a cold day in a warm living room.

Brunetti faces the reality of the slowly increasing disillusionment that has crept into his life as he tries to the next right thing in the policing of Venice.
The series continues to be strong.
