About this deal

Brunetti interviews Kavinda's employer Gloria and several of the caretaker's acquaintances, and is told that Kavinda was a gentle man who worked hard and sent money to his wife and children back in Sri Lanka. Detective Sime Mackenzie, based in Montreal is part of the team sent to Entry Island to investigate the death of the wealthy businessman, James Cowell found stabbed to death. Despite the rain and cold, Brunetti chose to walk: the vaporetti would be overheated and crowded in weather like this. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.

I also find the theatrical elements of this series fascinating and much prefer the fact that they are written in the past tense.Donna Leon’s books unfold like an onion, layer by layer, thoughtfully, compassionately, humorously, but with little wiggle room for the perpetrator. La novela me ha gustado en todo lo que trataba entorno a ese asunto y estaba dispuesto a darle 5 estrellas en cuanto culminase la trama policial del asesinato, pero el final ha sido un poco trompicado y traído por los pelos, no me ha gustado. In Donna Leon’s latest book, once again we’re in Venice and Guido Brunetti is presented with a challenging situation - an undocumented Sri Lankan, who Brunetti met briefly, is found murdered. If ever a marriage was made in heaven,’ he said, looking down into the bag, content with his decision.

At one stage I just thought that some of the writing was a little poor compared to the other books in the series. A few days later, Brunetti is visited by Carabinieri Maggior Filippo Guarino from the nearby city of Marghera. Also every Friday there is The Friday 56, hosted by Freda at Freda’s Voice, where you grab a book and turn to page 56 (or 56% of an eBook), find one or more interesting sentences (no spoilers), and post them. A serial rapist and murderer is still at large in the city and when the flood waters recede a headless torso is found washed up.Their investigation eventually takes them to a slaughterhouse on the mainland, where they discover the origin of the crime, and the world of blackmail and corruption that surrounds it.

This time around there is little of the domestic as the concentration is the focus on the death of a Sri Lankan man.

Married women were not allowed to drive panda cars, and were largely employed to make tea and do the paperwork. And it’s a trail that leads him to Lonsdale College, where the contest between Julian Storrs and Dr Denis Cornford for the coveted position of Master is hotting up.

And before the night is out Brunetti is confronting yet another appalling and apparently senseless death. In this case, Guido and his associates look into the death of a Sri Lankan immigrant, who has, coincidentally, been working for an old school friend of Brunnetti and living in a garden house on their property. We learn more about both Brunetti and Vionello as they reveal their own youthful thoughts and actions. Once a passionate horse rider, Manuela, now aged thirty, cannot remember the accident, or her beloved horse, and lives trapped in an eternal youth. En una fría noche de noviembre, Brunetti recibe una llamada del Inspector Vianello comunicando que ha aparecido una mano en uno de los canales de la ciudad.He looked past them, as though there were a projection of the first page of the Gazzettino flashing on the wall behind them. Ruth Galloway series, with the forensic archaeological details, despite wishing they weren’t written in the present tense.
