About this product

Product Information

When Commissario Brunetti is visited by a young bureaucrat concerned to investigate the lack of official approval for the building of his apartment years before, his first reaction, like any other Venetian, even a cop, is to think of whom he knows who might bring pressure to bear on the relevant local government department. But when the bureaucrat rings him at work, clearly scared by some information he plans to give Brunetti, and is then found dead after a fall from scaffolding, something is clearly going on that has implications rather greater tean the fate of Guido's own apartment. Brunetti's investigations take him into unfamiliar areas of Venetian life - drug abuse and loan-sharking - while the deaths of two young drug addicts and the arrest, and subsequent release, of a suspected drug-dealer reveal, once again, what a difference it makes in Venice to have friends in high places.

More explanation of Policing structures in Venice would have been helpful
I bought this on the recommendation of a "reading" friend, who loves this author and told me to start with this book! Whilst enjoying it to a degree, - its description of Italy and especially Venice was evocative, nonetheless the Italian phrases used, presuming knowledge of the structures and organisation of Venice, not least the way the local political systems, and police forces work could have been explained more clearly and would have, at least for me, helped with the intricacies of the plot. I am not sure that I will seek out another of her books, though would not disregard it should one come to hand.
