Description:
As Uniform Justice opens, Venetian detective Commissario ì Guido Brunetti is called to investigate a parent's worst ì nightmare. A young cadet has been found hanged, a presumed ì suicide, in Venice's elite military academy. Brunetti's sorrow ì for the boy, so close in age to his own son, is rivaled only by ì his contempt for a community that is more concerned with ì protecting the reputation of the school, and its privileged ì students, than understanding this tragedy. The young man is the ì son of a doctor and former politician, a man of an impeccable ì integrity all too rare in Italian politics. Dr. Moro is clearly ì and understandably devastated by his son's death; but while both ì he and his apparently estranged wife seem convinced that the ì boy's death could not have been suicide, neither appears eager to ì talk to the police or involve Brunetti in any investigation of ì the circumstances in which he died. As Brunetti pursues his ì inquiry, he is faced with a wall of silence. Is the military ì protecting its own? And what of the other witnesses? Is this the ì natural reluctance of Italians to involve themselves with the ì authorities, or is Brunetti facing a conspiracy far greater than ì this one death?
