Title
Quietly in Their Sleep: A Commissario Guido Brunetti Mystery - Paperback
by Donna Leon (Author)
In the sixth novel of the New York Times-bestselling series, a distraught nun seeks help after a series of suspicious deaths at her convent
In Venice, Italy, Commissario Guido Brunetti comes to the aid of a young Catholic sister, who left her convent after five of her nursing home patients died unexpectedly. In the course of his inquiries, Brunetti encounters an unusual cast of characters but discovers nothing that seems criminal. Is this simply a smokescreen to justify abandoning a spiritual vocation? Or has the nun stumbled onto something very real and very sinister--something that places her own life in imminent danger?
