Unto us a son is given
Count Falier was urging his Venetian son-in-law to investigate, and preferably intervene in, the seemingly innocent plan of the Count's best friend, the elderly Gonzalo Rodríguez de Tejada, to adopt a much younger man as his son. Under Italian inheritance laws this man would then be heir to Gonzalo's entire fortune, a prospect Gonzalo's friends find appalling. For his part, Brunetti wonders why the old man, a close family friend, can't be allowed his pleasure in peace.

Summary
Unto Us a Son Is Given
A New York Times Bestselling AuthorA Commissario Guido Brunetti MysteryWhen Gonzalo RodrÃguez de Tejeda makes plans to adopt a young man -- making him the heir to his fortune -- Conte Orazio Falier urges his son-in-law, Guido Brunetti, to investigate the matter. Then Gonzalo unexpectedly dies, and his good friend Berta Dodson, just arrived in Venice for the memorial service, is strangled in her hotel room. Now with an urgent case to solve, Brunetti reluctantly untangles the long-hidden mystery in Gonzalo's life that ultimately led to murder -- a resolution that brings him much more pain than satisfaction.
