"The superb reader, Andrew Sachs, has become the voice of Brunetti:
intelligent, thoughtful, weary and worldly wise. When the policeman
relaxes at night, we can almost taste the cold Pinot Grigio that he
sips on his balcony, and when he pays a visit to the sickening,
stinking, blood-boltered horrors of the slaughterhouse, we are led
right down into the seventh circle of Dante's Hell."
*The Independent on Sunday*
"A gripping narrative read by Andrew Sachs."
