NOTICE!

For some reason I can add sidebars, but not new posts. Please check back later. I have been working on a variety of things including switching my blog soon from this one, which was set up with my now-defunct West Wisconsin Telcom account. I hope to have my new blog through Gmail up soon. I will provide a link and announcement when I've got everything straight. 7/2/11

Recently read: Donna Leon’s A Sea of Troubles


As I often comment, I enjoy these mysteries set in contemporary Venice. In this, Commissario Guido Brunetti ventures out to the outlying island of Pellestrina when a father and son are discovered brutally murdered in the charred remains of their burned fishing boat. The small community closes ranks against the police. Against Brunetti’s advice, the inimitable Signorina Elettra decides to work under cover in a role well beyond her duties as the administrative assistant to the Vice-Questore of Venice’s police force.
