The latest mystery in the internationally bestselling
Inspector Montalbano series
With their dark
sophistication and dry humor, Andrea Camilleri's hugely
popular Sicilian crime novels continue to win more and more
fans in America. The day after a storm, Inspector Montalbano
encounters a strange woman who expresses interest in a
certain yacht scheduled to dock that afternoon. Not long
after she's gone, the yacht's crew reports finding a
disfigured corpse. Also at anchor is a luxury vessel with a
somewhat shady crew. Both boats will have to stay in Vigàta
until the investigation is over and, based on information
from the woman, Montalbano begins to think the occupants of
the yacht might know more about the man's death than they're
letting on.
