About this title: When one of his wife's Paola's students comes to visit him, with a strange and vague interest in investigating the possibility of a pardon for a crime committed by her grandfather many years ago, Commissario Brunetti thinks little of it, beyond being intrigued and attracted by the girl's intelligence and moral seriousness.

"Brunetti moves along in pedestrian fashion, with a number of assists from his inside friends, and prods from his police boss, again. We always have to wait until the last chapter to get it all together, and reflect -- now why didn't I think of that. Wilful Behavior is not exception...it was exhilrating to read. Thanks, Donna...your skill at telling a story is ACES!
"I recommend you start with Death at La Fenice and read all the wonderful Commissario Brunetti murder mysteries. Donna Leon takes you to Venice and other Italian locations as she tells of Brunetti, his family and coworkers, and others. It is an experience that shouldn't be missed."
"I am enjoying this series. Now that I have been to Venice i regognise many places mentioned therein . This was not my favourite but the plots are so very varied they keep one's interest ."
