A Commissario Brunetti Novel.
The murder of two of the clam fishermen off the island of Pellestrina, south of the Lido on the Venetian lagoon, draws Commissario Brunetti into the close-knit community of the island, bound together by a code of loyalty and a suspicion of outsiders worthy of the Mafia. When the Questore's secretary Signorina Elettra volunteers to visit the island, Brunetti finds himself torn between his duty to solve the murders, concerns for Elettra's safety, and his not entirely straightforward feelings for her . . .
'A Sea Of Troubles' sees Commissario Brunetti adrift in the Venetian lagoon, but as wise and sympathetically human as ever, in Donna Leon's latest stunning addition to the Brunetti series.
