Praise for Earthly Remains : A New York Times Bestseller A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice An Amazon Best Book of the Month (Mystery) "When she's writing about her beloved Venice, Donna Leon can do no wrong. And Earthly Remains , her new mystery featuring Commissario Guido Brunetti, is one of her best . . . [A] socially aware and intensely felt series . . . Leon . . . once again earn[s] the gratitude of her devoted readers." --Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review "Donna Leon's novels about Venetian detective Guido Brunetti never disappoint, and Earthly Remains is no exception . . . [A] gentle, elegiac tale." --Adam Woog, Seattle Times (April's Best Crime Fiction) "As deftly as Leon weaves mysterious past and shocking present, this leisurely paced book's greatest rewards, as is usually the case with her work, are reflective . . . [Brunetti] is, through thick and thin, great company--and a pretty good crime solver as well." --Lloyd Sachs, Chicago Tribune "Reading Leon is like sitting down with old friends for the most satisfying of dinners, replete of course with well-chosen wines . . . Leon is a wonderful writer, the sentences as beautifully crafted as the puparin Casati's father had long ago built. You feel the sodden heat of a Venetian summer, the crowds marching like ants across the Rialto Bridge, the sting of Guido's sunburn and his rage at the corruption that ruins life for everybody. The Italians don't know what they're missing." -- Arts Desk "Leon's multifaceted portrait of a man overburdened with human tragedy emerges forcefully here, as the lagoon itself, beautiful on the surface but containing the seeds of its own destruction, stands as a gripping metaphor for the bad choices and intractable dilemmas that infect us all . . . Leon['s] . . . novels, with their unparalleled evocation of landscape and sensitivity to character, have attracted an audience that encompasses fiction readers of all kinds." -- Booklist (starred review) "A vacation for your own soul." -- Kirkus Reviews "Showcasing the stark contrast between Venice's organic beauty and the decay that centuries of neglect and overindulgence have laid upon it, Earthly Remains delicately captures the tension that modern Italians face . . . Mystery readers who enjoy a little philosophical introspection are sure to love this latest entry in a delightful series perfect for fans of Henning Mankell or Louise Penny." -- Shelf Awareness "Bestseller Leon's enticing 26th Commissario Guido Brunetti mystery . . . Along the way to the poignant ending, Brunetti develops insights into nature and humankind's failure to protect it, as well as the nature of guilt and its role in a man's life." -- Publishers Weekly " Earthly Remains , the 26th installment of this quietly beloved series, is the best of a wonderful lot . . . Leon's character development and scene-setting are so strong and interesting that the story just moves right along without a bump or hitch . . . There are few reading joys that equal cracking the binding of a new Leon novel and experiencing another meeting with Brunetti . . . If you have not experienced this world, so exotic and yet so familiar, you can pick up literally any volume in the series and begin a comfortable entry into Brunetti's Venice. Earthly Remains , however, would be a superlative place to start." --BookReporter.com, Praise for Earthly Remains : A New York Times Bestseller A New York Times Book Review Editors?

Synopsis
At the start of Earthly Remains , Commissario Guido Brunetti, confronted once more by someone of privilege avoiding censure, loses patience at work, and in the aftermath realizes that he needs a break and is granted leave from the Questura. His wife, Paola, urges him to spend time at a villa owned by a wealthy relative on Sant'Erasmo, one of the largest islands in the laguna . There he passes his nights reading Pliny's Natural History and his days rowing with the villa's caretaker, Davide Casati, who is seeking the reason his bee colonies in the laguna are suffering. The recuperative stay goes according to plan until Casati goes missing following a sudden storm. Compelled to investigate, Brunetti sets aside his leave of absence to understand what happened to the man who has become his friend, in the process dredging up dark memories of an accident and cover-up years before. Earthly Remains is quintessential Donna Leon, a powerful addition to this enduring series., In the latest novel in the New York Times bestselling series, Brunetti's retreat to a quiet island in the laguna is interrupted by a case of guilt and grief
