Eight of us turned out this rainy Monday morning to discuss Donna Leon's Death at La Fenice. I had been able to find and print pictures of the Venetian opera house as well as a picture of the main character from the German TV series. We all agreed that we liked the plotline, Ms. Leon's writing style, and Guido Brunetti very much. We'd all like to read more of this series.
.
We are looking forward to reading the selection for August, P. D. James' Cover Her Face (Adam Dalgliesh Series #1). One of our members has read the entire series and highly recommended it to the group.
.
The synopsis on BN.com says, "Sally Jupp was a sly and sensuous young woman who used her body and her brains to make her way up the social ladder. Now she lies across her bed with dark bruises from a strangler’s fingers forever marring her lily-white throat. Someone has decided that the wages of sin should be death...And it is up to Chief Inspector Adam Dalgliesh to find out who that someone is. "
.
We hope that you can join us for the discussion of this who-done-it on Monday, August 17th at 10:00 a.m. in the Cafe.
