I read it eagerly, keen to get to the bottom of the mystery surrounding the deaths of two clam fishermen, father and son, off the island of Pellestrina, south of the Lido on the Venetian lagoon, when their boat suddenly exploded.

Because no official record of the man's presence in Venice exists, Brunetti is forced to use the city's far richer sources of information: gossip and the memories of people who knew the victim. However, when Franchini is found murdered in his home, the case takes a more sinister turn and soon Brunetti finds himself submerged in the dark secrets of the black market of antiquarian books. If you’re looking for a fast-paced, heart-pounding adventure mystery, the Commissario Brunetti books are not for you. He doesn’t smoke or drink to excess and often goes home for lunch to his beautiful wife Paolo, who is a wonderful cook – in this book she treats him to a delicious apple cake made with lemon and apple juice and ‘ enough Grand Marnier to permeate the whole thing and linger on the tongue for ever.A lorry crashes on one of the treacherous bends in the Italian Dolomites, spilling a terrible cargo. So he ran towards him, but before he could get there, one of the people from the parade grabbed the sign, pulled it away from him and slammed it on the ground a couple of times.

Entry Island by Peter May, set in the present day Magdalen Islands, part of the province of Quebec, in the Gulf of St Lawrence, and in the nineteenth century on the Isle of Lewis at the time of the Highland Clearances. They are written in English and translated into many foreign languages, although not, by her request, into Italian. Even Commissario of Police, Guido Brunetti, used to the labyrinthine corruptions of the city, is shocked at the number of enemies Wellauer has made on his way to the top – but just how many have motive enough for murder? To identify the killer, Brunetti consults the incomparable Signorina Elettra, the fashionable secretary who's a whiz at using computers to get helpful information. It appears his aunt has become obsessed with horoscopes and has been withdrawing large amounts of money from the family business.

As his professional and personal lives clash, Brunetti’s own career is under threat – and the conspiracy which Paola had risked everything to expose draws him inexorably to the brink. Despite the rain and cold, Brunetti chose to walk: the vaporetti would be overheated and crowded in weather like this. But eventually his natural curiosity takes over and he decides to help the inquiry, and his knowledge of the local community is vital in catching the killer.
