Death in a Strange Country (Commissario Guido Brunetti Mysteries)

Death In A Strange Country (Commissario Brunetti #2) - Donna Leon In the second novel in Leon's Brunetti series, we are introduced to Brunetti's inner circle at the police station. Sgt Vianello, the young Pucetti and Bonsuan the boat driver. Death in a Strange Country in dark and a cynical tale of corruption, murder and cover up. Leon understand the way men corrupt others, corrupt the environment, poison the mind. Again a solid plot layered with ethical dilemmas. Nothing comes without a price and in this novel the price is faith, faith in one's strength to do what's right.
