Helpful Score: 2

Donna Leon's books set in Venice give insights to a culture different from American or British, those mystery settings we most often read. She gives her characters a life separate from the investigations which adds depths to the plot developments. Each book develops differently, making the reading a pleasure since the reader is never sure what path it will take. I've read many of Leon's mysteries with C. Brunetti and have enjoyed them all, including Blood from a Stone.
