Su questo libro

Recensione:

"Surprisingly moving . . . a first-rate mystery and a fine novel."—Washington Post Book World"Dibdin's plot is as elegantly elaborate as the crisscrossing canals of Venice."—Newsday"The author has transcended his own superb craftsmanship by working [two] story lines into a structure of pure steel, and by making it the foundation of a serious study of modern-day Venice."—The New York Times Book Review
