Death and Judgment/Donna Leon/ 304 pages

If you have never read the Commissario Guido Brunetti series of mysteries you really should check them out. Leon is a terrific writer and she has created a fully developed character in Guido. He is both a police commissioner and a family man and in each title you see how those world tear at him from many directions. He is by no means perfect and you love him for his flaws as well. And the Venice setting is incredible. In this third book in the series Guido tries to solve the murder of a high profile attorney and the case takes many unexpected twists and turns. I can't wait to read the next one.
