Â
Commissario Guido Brunetti is surprised by the appearance of a friend of his wifeâ€™s, fearful that her son is using drugs and hopeful Brunetti can somehow intervene. When the womanâ€™s husband is found unconscious with a serious brain injury at the foot of a bridge in Venice after midnight, Brunetti is drawn to pursue a possible connection to the boyâ€™s behavior. But the truth, as Brunetti has experienced so often, is not straightforward.
Â
While Brunetti pursues several false and contradictory leads, he becomes exasperated by the petty bureaucracy that constantly bedevils him and threatens to expose Signorina Elettra, his superiorâ€™s secretary. But steadied by the embrace of his own family and by his passion for the classics, he reads Sophoclesâ€™s Antigone, and, in its light, considers the terrible consequences to which the actions of a tender heart can lead.
Â
â€œItâ€™s the living, bleeding humanity of the characters that makes Donna Leonâ€™s police procedurals so engaging.Â .Â .Â . Tagging along after this sleuth is a wonderful way to see Venice like a native.â€ â€•The New York Times Book Review
