Notable People: Donna Leon
Title: Death and Judgment
Review: The fourth installment in this endless series featuring Commisario Guido Brunetti of the Venice police is a complex plot involving sex trafficking across continents. Lovingly set in Brunetti’s adored Venice and full of political commentary on the state of the Italian leadership, it does not fail to entrance with suspense, thoughtfulness and humor throughout. Leon is very fine writer and Brunetti a masterful character. Leon dos not put a huge focus on the character development of the peripheral regulars, which is a small disappointment, but the book are so engaging that it hardly matters. Ready for #5.
