Ms. Leon has the distinctive ability of weaving a completely absorbing tale involving police excitement and family intrique. She pulls out all the stops. Yes, she is cynical about corruption in the city, but she also guides us through the enchantment and history of Venice truly such a part of all her characters' lives. No other author can bring me through such an intelligent range of action and emotion!
