Synopsis

The Venetian Lagoon is full of small island communities who do things their own way, with little regard for the authority of local police, let alone the Italian state. When two fishermen are murdered, and their boat is set alight, Commissario Brunetti has trouble finding anyone in the small and barren fishing port who will talk.

The elegant police secretary, Signorina Elettra, is the only person who can break through to them, and she is drawn into the menace when she volunteers to go undercover amongst the clam fishermen. As the danger mounts, Brunetti finds himself in over his head, torn between duty and emotion, wondering why his feelings are so strong for her...

Donna Lean's writing mesmerizes listeners with the sinister ambience of Venice, and the underlying danger and suspense. Her characterization, and plotting are exceptional.
