A Question of Belief





The new novel from Donna Leon, the Sunday Times bestselling author of About Face

As Venice experiences a debilitating heatwave, Commissario Brunetti prepares to escape the city and spend time with his family in the mountains. However, the weather is the last thing on Ispettore Vianello’s mind; it seems his aunt has become obsessed with horoscopes and has been withdrawing large amounts of money from the family business. Not knowing what to do, he consults Brunetti and asks permission to unofficially trail her, which leads to the flat of Stefano Gorini. But who is this man? And why is Vianello’s aunt giving him large amounts of money?

Praise for A Question of Belief

'Leon excels in the claustrophobia of families, the Italian class system and the sinister aspects of Venice that the tourists don't see.

The Times

Leon's books are a joy, and the 19th Venice-based Commissario Brunetti novel is well up to her consistently high standard...All the Leon hallmarks are here: clear, unshowy writing, atmosphere, humanity and believable characters.

Guardian

Leon never fails to impress with her carefully wrought plots and believable characters

Daily Mail

This novel is beguiling in its many well-observed details about human nature and daily life in Venice.
