«Death in a Strange Country» is the crime novel by Donna Leon, published by Arrow in paperback (384 pages, in English).
Commissario Guido Brunetti investigates the appearance of a young man's corpse in a Venice canal. The apparent mugging seems too convenient as a motive, and compromising evidence found in the victim's apartment points to a high-level corruption plot. Brunetti must navigate pressures and silences to uncover the truth.
Second novel in the Commissario Brunetti series, originally published in 1993; this Arrow edition is from 2004.
For those who follow the Commissario Brunetti series and for readers of crime fiction set in Venice.
Donna Leon is the American author of a series of crime novels set in Venice, Italy, featuring the fictional hero Commissario Guido Brunetti. The novels are written in English and have been translated into many foreign languages, although – at Leon's request – not into Italian, as she formerly lived there, still visits monthly, and prefers not to have recognition in the country.
