Well, I hope my good deed, albeit inadvertently, will be noted by the bearded fatty. ;,>) I do not know the series yet, but hope that I enjoy it too.
Great list, Wayne - I think you will like Death at La Fenice - I've been meaning to continue with this series and friends have encouraged me to read more books by Donna Leon. Enjoy your choices.
