Shortlisted for the Gold Dagger Award (CWA Dagger for Crime Novel of the Year) (2000).

Friends in High Places won the Crime Writers Association Macallan Silver Dagger Award for Fiction. Commissario Guido Brunetti gets into trouble when Franco Rossi, a young bureaucrat, pays him a visit. Rossi is there to determine whether Brunetti's apartment was built with official approval, and when Brunetti is unable to provide any documentation, he faces the prospect of both fines and the dismantling of his home. But when Rossi rings Brunetti at work, clearly scared, and is then found dead, Brunetti is drawn into an investigation that unveils a world of corruption, drug dealing and moneylenders.
