- content: Mystery fans who are looking for a change of scenery and international ambience should get to know Guido Brunetti, commissario of the Venice police. Anna Fields deftly narrates this well-drawn plot of political corruption, murder, and drugs. Fields is at home in the city and canals of Venice. She brings forward the complexities of Brunetti's character, balancing his compassion and idealism with a tough cynicism born of many years experience with the bureaucrats and the powerful of Venice. Fields maintains a good pace for building the framework of clues that fit neatly together in unexpected ways. J.E.M. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine

- content: Guido Brunetti, of the Venice police, is a character American audiences will love--if only given a better chance to get to know him. Leon's series involving wonderful Venetian settings, food, and characters is hard to find in print and thus even more welcome as an audiobook. With very precise articulation Gordon Griffin leads listeners through Brunetti's investigation of a murder into the world of moneylenders and graft in Venice. He doesn't seem completely at ease with either the characters or the accents. He is, however, quite good with the women, including Brunetti's dynamic, independent wife, Paola. Friends won the British Crime Writers' Silver Dagger Award. R.F.W. (c) AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine
