Uniform Justice<\/a><\/em> (2003) Donna Leon<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This is an exceptionally depressing story.<\/p>\n

It starts with a young man–a boy, really–found dead. Hanging in the restroom of a military academy. <\/p>\n

Suddenly he had a vision of what it must have been for the Moros to attempt to remove evidence of Ernesto’s presence from their homes, and he thought of the danger that would remain behind: a single, lonely sock found at the back of a closet could break a mother’s heart anew; a Spice Girls disc carelessly shoved into the plastic case meant to hold Vivaldi’s flute sonatas could shatter any calm. Months, perhaps years, would pass before the house would stop being a minefield, every cabinet or drawer to be opened with silent dread.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
