«Beastly Things» is a crime novel by Donna Leon, published by Arrow in paperback (368 pages, in English).
A man is found dead in a Venice canal, disfigured and with multiple stab wounds. With no identification and only a pair of distinctive shoes as a clue, Commissario Brunetti thinks he recognizes him from a farmers' protest the previous year. The investigation leads him to a slaughterhouse and a web of blackmail and corruption in the meat industry.
It is the 21st installment in the 'A Commissario Brunetti Mystery' series.
Intended for readers of crime fiction who follow the Commissario Brunetti series and stories set in Venice.
Donna Leon is the American author of a series of crime novels set in Venice, Italy, featuring the fictional hero Commissario Guido Brunetti. The novels are written in English and have been translated into many foreign languages, although – at Leon's request – not into Italian, as she formerly lived there, still visits monthly, and prefers not to have recognition in the country.
