Death and Judgment // A Venetian Reckoning — Donna Leon

A QUESTION OF MOTIVE

Someone is killing Italy's prominent businessmen--but why? At first glance the murders appear unrelated. However, Venice's most charming and tenacious detective, Vice-Commissario Guido Brunetti, suspects a fatal link. Unraveling the city's complexities and nuances as no one else can, Brunetti mounts an unorthodox investigation. What he uncovers is a disturbing international web of exploitation run by Venice's most influential citizens, and an outsider's insatiable lust for retribution.
