En eaux dangereuses (Les enquêtes du Commissaire Brunetti t. 29)

The atmospheric backdrop of Venice adds so much to the mood. I'm curious whether the setting was chosen for its unique character or personal significance to the author.

The internal conflicts really added depth, making me wonder how much Leon wanted us to question notions of justice versus personal loyalty.

The local customs and scenery seem integral, but I wonder if they also serve as commentary on broader societal issues in Italy.
