Donna Leon has achieved a new depth of profundity & inspiration with this 'cold case' in which murder is not the primary focus, but instead the essence of humanity. Leon has tackled an aspect of consciousness that called for her most thoughtful portrayal of an innocent victim, and what justice can be given to someone whose life seems to have lost all meaning & ultimate worth.
