Through a glass, darkly a Commissario Guido Brunetti mystery

A luminous spring day in Venice, and Commissario Brunetti and his sidekick Vianello are out to rescue Vianello's friend Marco, who has been arrested during an environmental protest. They get him released, only to be faced with the fury of the man's father-in-law, who owns a glass factory on Murano. The old man is seething with rage, and his daughter shares her fear with Brunetti that he will actually harm her husband. But it is not Marco who has uncovered the guilty secret of the glass foundries, nor he whose body is found lying in front of the furnaces.
