Suffer the Little Children by Donna Leon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Suffer the Little Children, the 16th book in the series and we are taken back to the sights, smells, sounds and the life warm-hearted, insightful, and honorable Commissario Brunetti's beautiful and secretive city, Venice.
A story of the murky underworld of illegal adoption, where babies are bought for money by the rich and titled and the evil that permeates everyone involved.
The opening scene in this story is unforgettable and the book ends with the most unexpected twist.
A slow but compelling and rather sad story.
