«Blood from a Stone» is the mystery novel by Donna Leon, published by Arrow in paperback (355 pages, in English).
On a cold night, shortly before Christmas, an immigrant street vendor is murdered in the Venetian square of Campo San Stefano. The tourists who had been looking at his imitation handbags offer no useful clues. Commissario Brunetti, puzzled by a crime with no apparent motive, investigates the lesser-known Venice and discovers that matters of great value are afoot in the immigrant community.
Fourteenth installment of the Commissario Brunetti series, featuring Commissario Guido Brunetti.
For readers of crime and mystery fiction, especially followers of 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.
