Willful Behavior

Mystery lovers everywhere are addicted to Donna Leon¿s ever-honorable Commissario Guido Brunetti and her portrayal of Venice¿s beautiful but sinister byways and canals.

In Willful Behavior, Brunetti is approached for a favor by one of his wife¿s students. Intelligent and serious, Claudia Leonardo asks for his help in obtaining a pardon for a crime once committed by her now-dead grandfather. Brunetti thinks little of it¿until Claudia is found dead. Soon, another corpse and an extraordinary art collection lead Brunetti to long-buried secrets of Nazi collaboration and the exploitation of Italian Jews¿secrets few in Italy want revealed.
