Title: Another disappointment
Review: This is the third and last of her books I will read. The other two were not all that intriguing and the endings were disappointing. At the end the question in you mind was: 'That's it? That's all there is to this?'This one was different. It is one of those books that keeps you up at night because you want to read a few more pages before turning out the lights. But then you reach the end and you are appalled. I won't give away the ending but it will offend your sense of justice.Donna Leon's books have two parts. One part is the mystery. That is fiction. The second part is about Italy. Because of her extensive experience there, that is fact. The picture of the venality and corruption she paints in her books has taken some of the shine off the impression I got from a three-week tour in 2012.I wanted to go back but now I'm not so sure I will.
