A fantastic view of modern-day Venice, the decaying skeleton of a once-great city-state. Dibdin's mysteries are first rate, although the ending for this one is a little flat. However, he always gives an accurate portrait of Italian culture: high-style and low corruption.

Interesting setting and characters but rather obscure at times.
