Leon returns to characters in her first book in this series, Death at La Fenice, to create a mystery based on opera and obsession. Flavia Petrelli has returned to sing a role in Tosca and finds herself showered with yellow roses following the performance, with more roses in her dressing room and at her apartment. But, there's no acknowledgment of who is sending them. The expectations of some of her fans weighs heavy on Petrelli. Then, acquaintances start being attacked. Brunetti expects an obsessive fan, but who is it? Were there parallels with the opera and the stalking fan? I'm not sure. This certainly had more on opera than I cared about so I'd have to say I enjoyed this less than most of her Brunetti mysteries. The funniest bit was when Brunetti and his partner chose an evening of surveillance at La Fenice over spending the evening watching 'Downton Abbey' with their families!
