Donna Leon is certainly a very prolific writer, and my initial reaction after reading 2-3 of her Commissario Brunetti books was that her tendency to focus more on Guido Brunetti than on the plots might become tiresome after a time, since his character, as interesting as he is, might become too repetitive over time. However, and this book is an excellent example, the plot (a diva opera singer stalked by a fan), is equally dominant in driving the narrative, and that plot line, and infused with the wonderful personality, character traits, family interactions, and diligence of the Commissario never ceases to entertain. Since many of her Brunetti books have been bargain priced (i.e. $1.99 – $3.99) I have stocked many on my kindle, and intersperse them with other downloaded books such that I read about one Brunetti book a month. Very dependable – you can count on an enjoyable read. The Commissario is a very likable character, as are his close associates on the Venetian police force, but his intellect and lifestyle dominates. Love the character, love the writing, enjoy the plots, and love the series.
Every one of Donna Leon’s novels is worth reading. The characters are well drawn and while the mysteries seem local to Venice, most of the time they touch on some really important global problem such as: white slavery, drugs, repression of women, etc. I recently returned from a trip to Italy. The tour guide said that while Donna Leon is American, every Italian is familiar with her work.

Fatal Remedies audiobook in series Commissario Brunetti Mysteries
Take and expired medicines are being sold to poor and starving countries. Both of the partners disagree on how the business is being run. Then Brunetti enters to solve all the mysteries turnpike up. The detective work is great ,but the family is quite enchanting and the love that Paola and Brunetti have for each other is beautifully told
I am tempted to think of this book as a particularly personal statement by the author. As a woman writing about a man, pretending to represent the mind of a very clever man, she calls on some issues important to her as a woman, even using Paola to make the point that a man can never really understand a woman’s feelings about sex trafficking.
That segues into a very cleverly plotted murder, with even more cleverness in Brunetti’s solving of the murder.
The book ends with a reflection on the ongoing conflict between good and evil. The most personal of her books I have read so far and also a very good story.

Audiobook Fatal Remedies by Donna Leonm
This is a complicated book. The characters are the same in Brunettis family and the police station of course, but the criminals are mixed up in many activities. It takes days of following many leads and intuition to have any answers. Donna Leon writes an excellent mystery with wonderful characters. There is a slice of Veniceian family life to compliment the detective work.
I love Donna Leon’s Brunetti series and am working my way through it all. After reading a few, you develop a friendship with the Commissario and his family and colleagues. This one includes more involvement of his wife Paola who commits an act of vandalism in protest of a travel agency who organizes sex tours. When the owner of the agency is murdered, Brunetti works to clear her of the crime. Satisfying read!

Audio Fatal Remedies narrated by David Colacci
Ever since a friend introduced me to Donna Leon’s Commissario Brunetti series, I have been enthralled by them. The Commissario is a wonderful character. He is calm in the midst of power struggles within the police department, tough when necessary and quite gallant. This time out he and his team are investigating murders that appear to involve a Venetian travel agency promoting travel to places where the child sex slave market is a flourishing business. Peace in the Brunetti family is disrupted. One of the great joys of this series is the Brunetti family. Donna Leon has created fully human, sometimes very contrary people.
I’d also like to point out one of my favorite’s in Brunetti’s office, the elegant and fashionable Signorina Elettra, who is able to find any information needed on her computer and through her extensive network of contacts. She could be the patron saint and roll model for Adminitrative Assistants!!!
Fatal Remedies speeds along and I found it nearly impossible to put down.

This, the eighth in the Brunetti series, has a genuine shock (well, for me, anyway) at the end of the first chapter: “the cheerful smile on the status of Goldoni seemed wildly out of place.” And an even greater shock at the end of the eleventh chapter: Donna Leon sure knows how to jolt the reader who may have become too laid back about Commissario Brunetti and his work.
Without wishing to give too much away, I had noticed how in almost every previous book in this series there had been a short paragraph, or even just a single throwaway line, about child-trafficking or child prostitution. But this volume seems to tackle the topic and trade head-on. But not until chapter 23 (of 28 in total) is the reason for the clever title of the novel made clear. The plot is up to its usual high standards, but would the Venice police really have been so behind the times in 1999 in knowing so little about computers and relying so much on Signorina Elettra?
With references to a Donizetti opera, to the classical myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, to Gibbon – and even to Maximilian Schell – Donna Leon wears well her cultural credentials. And her knowledge of the Italian way of doing things and the Italian point-of-view is also well to the fore. For instance, Brunetti “sometimes believed that a person in Italy could be excused any horror, any enormity, simply by saying that it was done for tax reasons …” And then, going home to lunch, “Brunetti shrugged. `There are days when I think everything’s getting worse, then there are days when I know they are. But then the sun comes out and I change my mind.’ ” Ah the seductive pleasures of the Venetian lunchtime. Lucky Brunetti! Lucky Donna Leon!
