I really enjoyed this detective story set in Venice, Italy, starring Commissario Guido Brunetti.
Uniform Justice is the 12th in the series, although only the first one that I've read. The story begins with the apparent suicide of a teenage boy in a military high school. Brunetti's suspicions grow when he learns that the boy's mother was attacked the previous year, and the father stepped down early from an elected position after writing a report that questioned some military procurement practices. Could all of this be related? The plot moves along quickly, the writing is very good, and the mystery reveals itself slowly as it approaches a heartbreaking revelation.
