Yay! We have SUN! I am having coffee on my porch while I wait for the Village‘s Memorial Day Parade to go by. Surrounded by a canopy of bird song: American Goldfinch, Mocking bird, House Wren, Gray Catbird, Northern Cardinal,Red -winged Blackbird, Robin, Mourning Dove, Eastern Towee to name of few (Merlin Bird ID). Other than the birds, it‘s quiet. #porchlife #serieslove2025

So many emotions ran through me while reading this book: deep sadness,anger,awe.It‘s the story of a mentally handicapped man,who works in a dry cleaning business that Brunetti‘s wife Paola frequents.She learns he has died & she asks Brunetti to look into his death.As a favor to her he does,but finds no trace of the man- it‘s as if he didn‘t exist.Is his “viper” of a mother or his Aristocratic father‘s family involved in his death?
