Love these books …so picturesque and exciting . Even though it’s short this gear author makes her stories come alive!

Great story!

This is one of the shorter Commissario Brunetti novels, and is set just outside Venice, on the island of Pallestrina. Beautifully read by Andrew Sachs, A Sea of Troubles has a more melodramatic ending than some Donna Leon's other books.

A good read
