Donna Leon
In the sixth title featuring Donna Leon's ever-charming and sympathetic protagonist, Commissario Guido Brunetti comes to the aid of a young nursing sister who has had five patients unexpectedly die and decides to leave her convent.
In the course of his inquiries, Brunetti encounters an unusual cast of characters but discovers nothing that seems criminal. Is the nun simply creating a smoke screen to justify abandoning her vocation? Or has she stumbled onto something very real and very sinister - something that places her own life in imminent danger?
A beautiful, suspense-filled novel, Quietly in Their Sleep is Donna Leon at the top of her form.

A sensitive and nuanced story beautifully read
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
Very convoluted and begins with a premise of murder without any supporting evidence, all presented by a young woman who is only very recently no longer a nun. Brunetti starts to become involved on principle but finds many oddities. Then someone appears to try to kill the young woman and it's an even worse entanglement from then on. An odd plot (I only worked for nuns and I am not a catholic) but compelling.
I do enjoy listening to narrator David Colacci, especially his Italian (or is it Venetian) pronunciations.

The narrator makes this book!
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
The authors’ incisive grasp of the measure of corruption that prevails prevents her from easy answers and uniformly sunny conclusions. This particular book is unsparing in its scope, and yet some genuinely innocent people were both believed and protected.
Profoundly satisfying
