Uniform Justice (Commissario Guido Brunetti Series, Book #12) by Donna Leon
In Uniform Justice, a Publishers Weekly Book of the Year, a young cadet in Venice's elite military academy has been found hanged, a presumed suicide. Commissario Guido Brunettis' sorrow for the boy, so close in age to his own son, is rivaled only by his contempt for a community that is more concerned with protecting the school's reputation and its privileged students than with finding the truth. The young man's father is a doctor and former politician. He has impeccable integrity, all too rare in Italian politics. Yet, although clearly devastated and convinced that the death of his son could not have been a suicide, he inexplicably avoids talking to the police. As Brunetti pursues his inquiry, he faces a wall of silence. Is the military protecting its own? And what is preventing the other witnesses from talking? Or has Brunetti uncovered a conspiracy far more sinister than that of a single death?
Grove Press, Softcover, 2003
