In the third book in Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano series, the urbane and perceptive Sicilian detective exposes a viper's nest of government corruption and international intrigue in a compelling new case. When an elderly man is stabbed to death in an elevator and a crewman on an Italian fishing trawler is machine-gunned by a Tunisian patrol boat
Another solid and well plotted entry in the enjoyable Inspector Montalbano series.

Inspector Montalbano and fellow policeman were feigning inattention while questioning someone,but really they were behaving like cats.

Poe was determined to prevent us from packing this suitcase & leaving him behind.Clearly he was feigning sleep & keeping an eye on us!
Enjoying this series, especially since my husband has Sicilian relatives, thanks to the recommendation of @Andrew65
#fridayafternoon #foundbookmark
Busy week between work & the World Series. So have been neglecting Litsy. ☹️
I love when I come across something in a library book, which happened when I opened the tagged book.Pictured bookmark has no date on it but looks lovingly used. From a bookstore, Macintosh books and paper on Sanibel, Florida. Googled it & the bookstore still exists. ❤️📚
@TheSpineView #SeriesRead 5⭐ Oh my goodness, Montalbano may be changing! This was book 3 of the series and the Inspector may finally be *growing up* as a friend said he should. I love his descriptions of the food he loves, of his relationship with livia and everything about this book. If you want to immerse yourself in Sicily, read this series! Can't wait to listen to the next one!
@Andrew65 (thanks!)
I have the pleasure of being on the west coast so the night is young. I stopped for a snack, and miss nosy wants in on it. #24in48
I #wanttotravel to Sicily. The beautiful panoramas and architecture in the Inspector Montalbano TV dramas have inspired me.
While I am saving my pennies I will have to read the Camilleri novels.

The third Montalbano book is another fantastic novel telling a fun tale seasoned with quirky individuals and Italian characteristics that make these books so unique. Loved it.
Camilleri uses some fantastic similies. I don't know if it's an Italian thing or just him, either way it makes the Montalbano novels very unique and fun!
I absolutely love the Montalbano novels. Started this one the other day and the detective's blunt remarks have made me laugh out loud several times already. Always a nice humorous escape to Italy.

This arrived in the post today. I love the Montalbano books. Fantastic mystery novels, filled with quirky characters whilst set in my favourite country. I always tend to eat extra Italian meals when reading these books!
