5.0 out of 5 stars Previously Published, Nov 10 2007

By	James A. Gonsalves "Jim G" (Toronto, ON, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While I would highly recommend this mystery, and all of Donna Leon's Brunetti books, previous purchasers of the series should note that this is yet another re-issue under a new name. It was previously published under the title, The Death of Faith, by Macmillan in 1997; paperback by Pan Books in 1998. I strongly feel that Amazon owes it to their customers to somehow include this information in their online promotional material.

4.0 out of 5 stars Brunetti Follows a Tip, Nov 6 2007

By	Professor Donald Mitchell "Jesus Makes Me a P... (Thanks for Providing My Reviews over 93,000 Helpful Votes Globally) - See all my reviews (#1 REVIEWER)

If you haven't read any other books in the Guido Brunetti series, don't start with this one. Go back and begin with Death at La Fenice.

This book was originally issued as The Death of Faith, one of Donna Leon's best stories in terms of making the mystery hard to understand until she chooses to let a key clue become available. The book also displays the problems that detectives have in solving crimes when doors are closed to them. As a result, this is a fine police procedural that you'll enjoy. Those who don't like the plodding steps involved in a detailed investigation may find this book to be a little slow for their taste.

If you dislike books that look at the potential for abuse in the Catholic Church, I recommend you skip this book: You won't be pleased.

Vice-Questore Patta is off on a second honeymoon, leaving Commissario Guido Brunetti in charge. He's at loose ends because crime has also taken a holiday when a vaguely familiar woman arrives to report her suspicions. Once Brunetti realizes that this is a person he has highly trusted in the past, he's inclined to take her report seriously. But scratching around doesn't yield any corroboration . . . until unknown agents seem to be determined to still the suspicions. This time the trail yields helpful clues.

Back in the family, Brunetti and his wife, Paola, discuss their differing views about religious instruction as their daughter, Chiara, becomes disillusioned with a class she's taking.

One of the pleasures of this story is to see a further development of Brunetti as a loyal person who wants to do the right thing.

One of the disappointing things about the book is that Ms. Leon seems to have an ax to grind that extends beyond her story.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent, Oct 28 2007

By	Toni Osborne "The Way I See It" (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

Donna Leon writes a fabulous Italian crime fiction mystery giving the reader an insight into what is believed to be the day to day live of a shrewd police detective. The main character in this story is brilliantly portrayed as a man with high morals that has love for food and family, hate for corruption and a deep distrust of the government.
