A review by annarella
Trace Elements by Donna Leon
4.0
I love Commissario Brunetti series but I don't think this is the best installment.
I found it slow paced and more tragic than other books I read in this series.
The main theme is the environment and the damaged caused by the humans. The descriptions of Venice in summer is realistic and the water theme was interesting and it's a very serious topic.
The mystery was slow, it took quite a long time before you start to understand what the issue is and it wasn't hard to guess the culprit.
I liked it and found Guido and Venice descriptions as interesting as usual.
I think it can be recommended to fan of the series but it's not the right book to start reading Donna De Leon.
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
