Bradbury has travelled many roads in the course of a long and celebrated career: rutted backwood paths that led to dark and dangerous places; country highways that wound through the unseen heart of America; shimmering celestial turnpikes as limitless and exciting as the unbound imagination. In DRIVING BLIND he takes us on twenty-one roads we have never visited before. Here are unforgettable excursions to the fantastic, glorious grand tours through time and memory, where surprises are waiting around each bend and just before every roadsign.
When a lorry crashes on one of the treacherous hair-pin bends in the Italian Dolomites even Commissario Guido Brunetti of the Venice Questura is appalled when he learns of its terrible cargo. This is Donna Leon's fourth novel to feature Guido Brunetti.
Inis has run away from her husband and children. Her new neighbour Trixie is eighty-four years old and a hymn-singing Salvation Army veteran. Trixie's life is one of apparent calm but beneath the surface lie not one but three different personalities. One of them is very private. And very dangerous.
