Interesting enough mystery, enhanced by the knowledge of the author of the location, in this case Venice away from the tourists  AnneliM | Jul 6, 2009 |  Beste thriller (?) in jaren 3.1.1995 (  ) karja | Sep 27, 2008 | A policier set in Venice which effectively conjures up an atmosphere mixing physical decay with political corruption. GeorgeBowling | Aug 30, 2008 | Like all the Zen books this has a terrific sense of place, an interesting hero and a richer text than most of the genre. (  ) CommonReeda | Nov 14, 2006 | An Aurelio Zen Mystery. Zen, a native of Venice, but now living in Rome, returns to try to solve the mystery of an Englishman who has disappeared. Inadvertantly, he stirs up controversy connected to a rabble rousing political party. Too many theatricals in the plot, but excellent description of life in Venice (  ) AnneliM | Dec 31, 1969 |  no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com (ISBN 0679753117, Paperback)In this, the latest in the Aurelio Zen series, Zen is in Venice under false pretenses. He's ostensibly there to investigate the "haunting" of an old family friend, but actually, and illegally, in town to find the body--dead or alive--of the missing patriarch of a wealthy American family."Zen is as sharp as ever in dealing with sneering Venetian lowlifes and bent Venetian cops. This masterfully atmospheric tale...will make most readers wish he could have stayed on the case forever." --Kirkus Reviews (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:09 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
