An opera singer is terrified by an obsessive fan in this "stunning"
mystery in the New York Times–bestselling series set in Venice,
Italy ( Library Journal, starred review). Years ago, Guido Brunetti
cleared the opera star Flavia Petrelli in the murder of a renowned
conductor. Now the soprano is returning to Venice—and its celebrated
opera house, La Fenice—to sing the lead in Tosca. Brunetti and
his wife, Paola, attend an early performance, and Flavia receives a
standing ovation. Back in her dressing room, she finds bouquets of
yellow roses—too many roses. Every surface of the room is covered
with them. An anonymous fan has been showering Flavia with these
beautiful gifts in London, St. Petersburg, Amsterdam, and now Venice,
but she no longer feels flattered, only frightened. When she
confesses her alarm—and then a singer who has caught Flavia's
attention is savagely attacked—Brunetti begins to think that
Flavia's fears are justified in ways neither of them imagined, and he
must enter into the psyche of an obsessive fan . . . From a New
York Times–bestselling and Silver Dagger Award–winning author,
this is "one of the most exquisite and subtle detective series ever" (
The Washington Post). "Another provocative addition to a fine
series, certain to appeal to aficionados of profound literary
mysteries such as Louise Penny's How the Light Gets In." — Library
