A review by richardpierce
Death in a Strange Country by Donna Leon

5.0

Superbly plotted. Worldly wise. We shoukd have been paying attention to the environmental concerns (and corruption at the highest levels) that Leon wrote about 27 years ago, and which was when I first read this book. Not a simple crime novel, but a multi-layered and aware book, drivwn by an obvious love for Venice.
