Review: Quietly in their Sleep

Quietly in Their Sleep by Donna Leon
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I like the Brunetti novels mainly for the rich Venetian setting and the complex characters rather than the plot. This one was particularily weak on plot however, as the "mystery" is very vague and as presented at the beginning of the story might not even have been a crime. Paola was also very restrained in this book which is not when she is at her best in my opinion.
