The Golden Egg (Commissario Guido Brunetti Series, Book #22) by Donna Leon
Donna Leon's novels starring the wise and humane Venetian Commissario Guido Brunetti have won fans and are bestsellers worldwide. In The Golden Egg, when Brunetti's wife, Paola, asks him to look into the death of the handicapped man who worked at their local dry cleaner, Brunetti is surprised to find nothing on the man in the official records: no birth certificate, no driver's license, no credit cards. As far as the Italian government is concerned, he never existed. And yet, there is the body. As secrets unravel, Brunetti suspects an aristocratic family might be connected to the case. But why would anyone want this sweet, simple-minded man dead?
