Beastly Things: A Commissario Guido Brunetti Mystery (The Commissario Guido Brunetti Mysteries, 21) - Softcover
Book 21 of 33: Commissario Brunetti
Synopsis
A New York Times bestseller: The police investigate the death of a veterinarian in Venice, Italy in this "swiftly paced" mystery (The Seattle Times).
When the body of man is found in a canal, damaged by the tides, carrying no wallet, and wearing only one shoe, Guido Brunetti has little to work with. No local has filed a missing-person report, and no hotel guests have disappeared.
The autopsy shows he had suffered from a rare, disfiguring disease. A shopkeeper tells Brunetti that the man had a kindly way with animals. Finally, the victim is identified as a much-loved veterinarian—and Brunetti's quest to find the killer will take him on a harrowing journey . . .
"All her trademark strengths shine in this swiftly paced, sophisticated tale of greed versus ethics."—The Seattle Times
"Written with such delicacy and emotional force that we can't help but be reminded of Greek tragedy."—Booklist, starred review
