"When Dottoressa Donato calls the Questura to report that a dying patient at the hospice Fatebenefratelli wants to speak to the police, Commissario Guido Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, waste no time in responding. "They killed him. It was bad money. I told him no," Benedetta Toso gasps the words about her recently deceased husband, Vittorio Fadalto. Even though he is not sure she can hear him, Brunetti softly promises he and Griffoni will look into what initially appears to be a private family tragedy. They discover that Fadalto worked in the field collecting samples of contamination for a company that measures the cleanliness of Venice's water supply and that he had died in a mysterious motorcycle accident. Distracted briefly by Vice Questore Patta's obsession with youth crime in Venice, Brunetti is bolstered once more by the remarkable research skills of Patta's secretary, Signora Elettra Zorzi. Piecing together the tangled threads, in time Brunetti comes to realize the perilous meaning in the woman's accusation and the threat it reveals to the health of the entire region. But justice in this case proves to be ambiguous, as Brunetti is reminded it can be when, seeking solace, he reads Aeschylus's classic play The Eumenides"--… (mere)

Trace Elements is written by Donna Leon and is Book #29 in the highly acclaimed Commissario Guido Brunetti series.
“When a dying hospice patient gasps that her husband was murdered over “bad money,” Commissario Brunetti softly promises he and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, will look into what initially appears to be a private family tragedy.”
“But justice in this case proves to be ambiguous, as Brunetti is reminded it can be when he reads Aeschylus’s classic play The Eumenides.” (quotes from Amazon Review)
I don’t know how Guido gets up in the morning. He and his team are so thoughtful, so meticulous, so highly ethical (it seems by Italian standards) in their detecting and solving of intricate puzzles/cases; yet full justice or accountability is rarely achieved.
While I love this series, its characters, its writing, its location - the endings are quite frustrating.

Donna Leon - Trace Elements: This ending had me shaking my fist in Leon’s general direction. #cursorybookreviews #cursoryreviews ( )

This was one of the more depressing Brunetti books. Every once in a while the ending to these wonderful novels is just a tad too real. Great characters as always, delicious food, fabulous sense of place and a good mystery. Ending was sad, but inevitable. ( )

A slow boiling pot-boiler that elevates to a satisfying conclusion. ( )

Lisible mais intrigue assez faible.
