520    "Your situation is always ambiguous, isn't it, Guido?", 
       his father-in-law, Count Orazio Falier, observes of Donna 
       Leon's soulful detective, Guido Brunetti, at the beginning
       of her superb 28th Brunetti novel, Unto Us A Son Is Given 
       . "The world we live in makes that necessary," Brunetti 
       presciently replies. Count Falier was urging his Venetian 
       son-in-law to investigate, and preferably intervene in, 
       the seemingly innocent plan of the Count's best friend, 
       the elderly Gonzalo Rodríguez de Tejada, to adopt a much 
       younger man as his son. Under Italian inheritance laws 
       this man would then be heir to Gonzalo's entire fortune, a
       prospect Gonzalo's friends find appalling. For his part, 
       Brunetti wonders why the old man, a close family friend, 
       can't be allowed his pleasure in peace. And yet, what 
       seems innocent on the Venetian surface can cause tsunamis 
       beneath. Gonzalo unexpectedly, and literally, drops dead 
       on the street, and one of his friends just arrived in 
       Venice for the memorial service, is strangled in her hotel
       room--having earlier sent Gonzalo an email saying "We are 
       the only ones who know you cannot do this," referring to 
       the adoption. Now with an urgent case to solve, Brunetti 
       reluctantly untangles the long-hidden mystery in Gonzalo's
       life that ultimately led to murder--a resolution that 
       brings him way more pain than satisfaction. Once again, 
       Donna Leon brilliantly plumbs the twists and turns of the 
       human condition, reuniting us with some of crime fiction's
       most memorable and enduring characters.--|cPublisher's
