In the pages of Donna Leon's internationally bestselling
Commissario Guido Brunetti mysteries, the conversations of the
Brunetti family have often turned to topics of art and literature,
but books are at the heart of this novel in a way they never have
been before. One afternoon, Brunetti gets a frantic call from the
director of a prestigious Venetian library. Someone has stolen
pages out of several rare books. After a round of questioning, the
case seems clear: the culprit must be the man who requested the
volumes, a visiting American professor. But the man fled the
library earlier that day, and after checking his credentials, it
becomes clear that he is not who he said he was. As the
investigation proceeds, the suspects multiply. And when a seemingly
harmless character turns up brutally murdered, Brunetti must
question his expectations about what makes a man innocent, or
guilty.
