Description
In the shimmering lagoon beside Venice, a case begins with a death that demands answers—and quickly expands into a wider reckoning with power, privilege, and the environmental costs of human carelessness. When Commissario Brunetti’s investigation takes an unexpected turn, he must navigate a web of arrogance and wrongdoing while confronting the fragile ecosystems that surround the city. Over ten tense days, what seems like a straightforward inquiry becomes a moral and political struggle, testing both his judgment and his commitment to justice. With Donna Leon’s sharp, observant style and a suspenseful, thought-provoking edge, this mystery blends crime-solving with urgent themes of accountability, ecological responsibility, and the consequences of treating lives—and landscapes—as disposable.
