In a snowy Venice, Commissario Guido Brunetti meets Franca Marinella, a woman with a disfigured face and great culture, wife of a shady businessman. The murder of a trucker drags him into a mafia network of waste trafficking that threatens the health of thousands of people and implicates the Venetian elite and Brunetti's family.
«La femme au masque de chair» is the eighteenth installment of the Commissario Brunetti series and was originally published in English as «About Face» (2009).
For fans of mystery and crime fiction, with police investigations 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.
