Early one morning Commissario Guido Brunetti of the Venice Police confronts a grisly sight when the body of a young man is fished out of a fetid canal.
Rich with atmosphere and marvelous plotting, Death in a Strange Country is a superb novel in Donna Leon\'s chilling Venetian mystery series..
When something is discovered in the victim\'s apartment that suggests the existence of a high-level conspiracy, Brunetti becomes convinced that somebody is taking great pains to provide a ready-made solution to the crime.
All the clues point to a violent mugging, but for Brunetti the motive of robbery seems altogether too convenient.
