Pewnego olśniewającego wiosennego dnia komisarz Guido Brunetti oraz inspektor Lorenzo Vianello wymykają się z komendy, by pośpieszyć z pomocą przyjacielowi Vianellego, inżynierowi-ekologowi, aresztowanemu podczas akcji protestacyjnej wymierzonej przeciw zakładom przemysłowym Marghery, zatruwającym odpadami chemicznymi Wenecką Lagunę. Ale to nie ów dzielny bojownik o czystość środowiska odkrywa tajemnicę przestępczej działalności fabrykantów szkła na wyspie Murano; i nie jego martwe ciało zostaje znalezione przed rozpalonym do temperatury 1.400 stopni Celsjusza piecem odlewniczym. Ponieważ w piekielnym żarze buchającym z pieca przepadły wszelkie ślady nocnej tragedii, Brunetti musi podążyć nikłym i enigmatycznym tropem wskazówek pozostawionych przez ofiarę w egzemplarzu Boskiej komedii Dantego - musi zejść do Piekła, aby dowiedzieć się, kto niszczy wody laguny i zabija świadka niszczycielskiego procederu. Intuicja i tym razem nie zawodzi komisarza, choć przestępcy - jak w wielu rozwikłanych przezeń sprawach - pozostaną bezkarni.

The twisted maze of Venice's canals has always been shrouded in mystery. Even the celebrated opera house, La Fenice, has seen its share of death ... but none so horrific and violent as that of world-famous conductor, Maestro Helmut Wellauer, who was poisoned during a performance of La Traviata. Even Commissario of Police, Guido Brunetti, used to the labyrinthine corruptions of the city, is shocked at the number of enemies Wellauer has made on his way to the top - but just how many have motive enough for murder? The beauty of Venice is crumbling. But evil is one thing that will never erode with age.

After a separation of many years, Emily Fido Faithfull bumps into her old friend Helen Codrington on the streets of Victorian London. Much has changed: Helen is more and more unhappy in her marriage to the older Vice-Admiral Codrington, while Fido has become a successful woman of business and a pioneer in the British Women's Movement.

The Flemish baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens was the most renowned northern European artist of his day, and is now widely recognized as one of the foremost painters in Western art history. By completing the fusion of the realistic tradition of Flemish painting with the imaginative freedom and classical themes of Italian Renaissance painting, he fundamentally revitalized and redirected northern European painting. Most accounts of Peter Paul Rubens represent the artist in his cosmopolitan European setting, in line with his demonstrable interests and ambitions. Although such interpretations are typically attentive to the ways in which political, socioeconomic and cultural circumstances and traditions in the Netherlands affected his persona and work, the interaction between Netherlandish contingencies and translocal ambition has rarely been the sustained object of Ruben's studies. In Dutch and English.
