Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

Commissario Guido Brunetti returns with a gripping and powerful case about the murkiness of power and a test of loyalties

'Perfectly crafted . . . this only proves what a truly great writer [Leon] has become' Mark Sanderson, The Times

'One of the most subtle and exquisite detective series ever' Washington Post

When two teenage gangs are arrested after clashing violently in one of Venice's campi, the son of a local hero is implicated. But when Commissario Guido Brunetti is asked by a wealthy foreigner to vet this man, Monforte, for a job, he discovers that Monforte might not be such a hero after all.

This seeming contradiction, and a brutal attack on one of Brunetti's colleagues by a possible gang member, concentrate Brunetti's attentions. Soon, he discovers the sordid hypocrisy surrounding Monforte's past, culminating in a fiery meeting of two gangs and a final opportunity for redemption.

A Refiner's Fire is Donna Leon at her very best: an elegant, sophisticated storyteller whose indelible characters become richer with each book, and who constantly interrogates the ambiguity between moral and legal justice.
