‘[An] intriguing, tense thriller. The ending is to die for’ Daily Express
Years ago, Guido Brunetti cleared the opera star Flavia Petrelli of the murder of a renowned conductor. When she returns to Venice to sing as the lead in Tosca, Brunetti and his wife Paola think nothing of attending an early performance.
But when Flavia confesses her alarm about the overwhelming attention she has received from an anonymous fan – and then a singer who she compliments is savagely attacked – Brunetti is alarmed. As Brunetti sets out to uncover the attacker and bring them to justice, he soon finds himself drawn into the psyche of an obsessive fan . . .
‘There is nothing more pleasant than spending time in the company of Commissario Guido Brunetti’ The Times
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
If you love old-fashioned mysteries as much as we do, you’ll adore Donna Leon’s latest Commissario Brunetti novel. After the urbane detective and his wife attend an opera starring Flavia Petrelli (the main character in Death at La Fenice, the first book in this series), Brunetti is pulled back into the unsettling drama of the aging diva’s life. During her performances as Tosca, a secret admirer has been showering Petrelli with yellow roses—but his adulation is tainted with menace. Leon’s radiant descriptions transport you to her hometown of Venice, ramping up the suspense with sly ease.
