Another in Donna Leon's satisfying, wonderfully erudite Guido Brunetti mysteries set in Venice. In this installment, a miserly, unpleasant woman is found murdered and all eyes, at least until our hero arrives, point to her Romanian housekeeper. This is number 13 in the series. Leon seamlesslessly weaves details of Venice and of the family life of her detective (whose kids are now teenagers) into her tale.  (ITL613, $7.99)
