 New book? July 5, 2007
66 out of 66 found this review helpful
If you have been reading Donna Leon for as long as I have, don't make my mistake of thinking this is a new book or one you've somehow missed. It's an old favourite, Death of Faith, appearing under its American title, but with no warning. I can't help feeling conned. If you haven't read it, it's a cheap copy of one of her best.
I'd like to amend my review, since I'm now, after a gap of some eight years, re-reading it with immense enjoyment: I had forgotten just how good it is. I should have given it five stars.

This is another of the US editions of Leon's books that pop up from time to time here. I think Quietly in Their Sleep is the US edition of Death of Faith. This is not a new Leon for the UK market - if you have read Death of Faith don't buy this. If not, and you don't mind US spelling, then this edition is often cheaper than the UK one. The book itself is typical Leon - great sense of place about Venice, food that makes you drool and an almost unique element for a fictional detective: a happy family. Great book but not new to UK readers.

A good book but this is not a new one - it is the US edition of Death of Faith. If you've read the UK edition don't buy this. If not, and you can live with US spelling, then go ahead - all of Leon's books are a wonderful read and will leave you itching to get on the plane to Venice. The single star is not for the book (I'd give the story 4) but just to alert you to the fact that this is not a new one.
