Commissario Guido Brunetti is called in to investigate the brutal beating of an American archaeologist who happens to be the partner of opera singer, Flavia Petrelli who was featured in Leon's first novel Death at La Fenice. Dottoressa Brett Lynch was beaten as a warning not to keep a meeting with a museum director who is later found dead. The motive of stolen antiquities threatens Dr. Lynch's life and career unless Brunetti can find the man in charge. All this happens during the seasonal Acqua Alta flooding in Venice which is another villain in this mystery.
