Beastly Things (A Commissario Guido Brunetti Mystery)

From the author of The Waters of Eternal Youth, twenty-first Commissario Brunetti mystery and Donna Leon€s biggest New York Times bestseller yet

It€s no wonder that Donna Leon€s latest mystery debuted on the New York Times bestseller list at number ten. The series€s tantalizing crimes, Venetian setting, and much-loved commissario are a winning combination that continues to earn critical acclaim and a growing readership around the globe.

In Beastly Things, Leon lives up to her reputation as a writer unafraid to address the corruption underlying La Serenissima€s outward beauty. When an unidentified murder victim winds up in a canal, Brunetti travels beyond his usual sphere to find the connection between the dead man and a local slaughterhouse.
