The Waters of Eternal Youth

Limitations. Fans of Donna Leon’s Venice novels featuring Commissario Guido Brunetti will find much that’s familiar in the latest installment titled, The Waters of Eternal Youth. The pace is relaxed, with ample time for Brunetti to engage in conversation, eating, drinking and reading. The case at the heart of this story took place more than a decade before Brunetti is asked to look into it. A young woman’s brain was damaged after she fell into a canal when a teenager. Her limitations lead Brunetti to a diligent investigation and resolution. Readers who have not read this series will likely find that one book is not enough: the entire Brunetti series brings great reading pleasure, especially to those readers who like strong character development and a clear sense of place. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase The Waters of Eternal Youth from amazon.com.
