«Death in a Strange Country» is the crime novel by Donna Leon, published by Arrow in paperback (384 pages, in English).
In Venice, Commissario Guido Brunetti investigates the appearance of the corpse of a young American soldier in a canal. Everything points to robbery, but a discovery in the victim's flat makes him suspect a plot of toxic dumping and a conspiracy linking the mafia with the US army.

For readers of crime suspense, especially those who enjoy detective series and Venetian settings.
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.
