«Noblesse oblige» is the crime novel by Donna Leon, published by Contemporary French Fiction in paperback (282 pages, in French).
A decomposing corpse appears on the outskirts of Venice. A signet ring identifies him as Roberto Lorenzoni, a young man from an aristocratic family kidnapped two years earlier. Commissario Brunetti reopens the case and turns to the support of his noble in-laws to move in Venetian high society.
«Noblesse oblige» is the seventh instalment in the Commissario Brunetti series; the first edition, «A Noble Radiance», appeared in 1998, and this French version in 2002.
For readers of crime fiction and for followers of the Commissario Brunetti series.
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.
