"In his many years as a commissario, Guido Brunetti has seen all manner of crime and known intuitively how to navigate the various pathways in his native city, Venice, to discover the person responsible. Now, in Transient Desires, the thirtieth novel in Donna Leon's masterful series, he faces a heinous crime committed outside his jurisdiction. He is drawn in innocently enough: two young American women have been badly injured in a boating accident, joy riding in the Laguna with two young Italians. However, Brunetti's curiosity is aroused by the behavior of the young men, who abandoned the victims after taking them to the hospital. If the injuries were the result of an accident, why did they want to avoid association with it? As Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, investigate the incident, they discover that one of the young men works for a man rumored to be involved in more sinister nighttime activities in the Laguna. To get to the bottom of what proves to be a gut-wrenching case, Brunetti needs to enlist the help of both the Carabinieri and the Guardia di Costiera. Determining how much trust he and Griffoni can put in these unfamiliar colleagues adds to the difficulty of solving a peculiarly horrible crime whose perpetrators are technologically brilliant and ruthlessly organized. Donna Leon's Transient Desires is as powerful as any novel she has written, testing Brunetti to his limits and forcing him to listen very carefully for the truth"--… (mere)

Transient Desires marks the 30th book in Donna Leon’s highly acclaimed Commissario Guido Brunetti series.
“Why would two young men dump two injured American girls outside a hospital in the middle of the night and then disappear? This is the question facing Commissario Guido Brunetti in a tricky case that requires the help of the Carabinieri and the Guardia Costiera to solve. What the Venetian detective and his colleagues eventually discover is genuinely horrific. The climax is nothing less than a trip―across the laguna―into the heart of darkness.” (Amazon Review)

A truly outstanding title. The city of Venice, its inhabitants and culture is always at the forefront of this series. Guido, his fellow police officers, friends and family - all present intelligent, interesting, philosophies, logic and reasoning to all their ‘cases’ and interactions.
Brilliant ***** ( )

Donna Leon - Transient Desires: Simply learning a little more about how shipping works in Venice was worth it. #cursorybookreviews #cursoryreviews ( )

The abandonment of two young Americans at a hospital late at night leads Brunetti’s into investigating the two young men who left them and then their backgrounds. The Italian Coast Guard gets involved and they suspect human trafficking. ( )

Once again Guido Brunetti investigates a case with a link to human trafficking. In this case, two American women were injured in an accident when they went with a couple of Italian men on the laguna. One woman was injured more severely. A camera caught the men dropping the women off at the hospital's dock. When Brunetti begins questioning the driver, he collapses in his office because of his own injuries. I was disappointed Signorina Elettra and others in the Questura did not make more appearances in the narrative. ( )
