BOOK: A Sea of Troubles

I recently picked up Donna Leon's latest mystery (since About Face) in the Albuquerque airport, thinking, "How had I missed reading this one?" It appears that A Sea of Troubles was first released in the UK in 2001, but now is out in paperback from Penguin Group (USA). The setting is on the island of Pellestrina, south of the Lido, making me wish I'd made a day trip to Chioggia on my last trip to Venice. Commissario Brunetti is charming and clever as always. Oh how I'd love to sit down to a fine meal with him!
