bookshelves: mystery
Read in September, 2010

Leon is a wonderful writer, but I feel she is losing somewhere the ability to make us smile in spite of all the darkness. Brunetti loves Venice, he loves his family, he cares about at least two of his colleagues, but none of that can balance the evil he has begun dwelling on in the human soul. There is no light side. When someone writes as well as Leon, it's hard to read her books when one after another is so full of darkness. four stars
