Description
When a boat explodes and sinks in the Venetian lagoon, the island of Pellestrina is left reeling—its owner and his eighteen-year-old son vanish without a trace. As Inspector Brunetti investigates, he uncovers a second, darker crime: the murder of a father and son clam fishermen, their deaths tied to the island’s tight-knit loyalties and deep suspicion of outsiders. With every answer guarded and every witness reluctant, Brunetti must navigate a community where loyalty can be both shield and weapon. Blending sharp social observation with a suspenseful, character-driven mystery, this novel explores the costs of secrecy, the fragility of trust, and the hidden currents beneath everyday life in Venice.
