THE TEMPTATION OF FORGIVENESS Guido Brunetti, Book 27

Donna Leon fans will enjoy another opportunity to stroll with Commissario Guido Brunetti along the Grand Canal and explore the distinctive culture of Venice. Narrator David Colacci once again does a fine job portraying the erudite Commissario; his fellow officers at the Questura; Paola, his intelligent wife; and his teenage offspring. Colacci's deliberate pace matches the slowly evolving investigation of a man who was pushed or fell from a bridge, leaving him comatose. While fans may be dismayed to see how the Commissario bumbles through the investigation until his colleague Signorina Elettra saves the day with her hacking skills, they will enjoy how Colacci's Italian accents make you believe you're listening to conversations in Italian.
