Summary

Summary

In Fatal Remedies, Brunetti's career is under threat when his professional and personal lives unexpectedly intersect. In the chill of the Venetian dawn, a sudden act of vandalism shatters the quiet of the deserted city, and Brunetti is shocked to find that the culprit waiting to be apprehended at the scene is a member of his own family. Meanwhile, he is also under pressure from his superiors to solve a daring robbery with connections to a suspicious accidental death. Could the two crimes be connected? And will Brunetti be able to prove his family's innocence before it's too late?

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Prepare to be charmed by David Colacci’s reading, the likable characters, and the Venetian views.” Library Journal
“It’s delightful to listen to David Colacci seamlessly alternate between the lyrical quality of English spoken with Italian accents, and the internal and descriptive narration spoken in an ordinary American accent. Additionally, Colacci’s beautiful pronunciation of Italian words and phrases keeps the listener eagerly anticipating the next luscious utterance.”  AudioFile

“One of the most exquisite and subtle detective series ever.” Washington Post, praise for the series
