![]() It's not a normal day for the detective - but then what is normal for him?īefore you begin reading, make certain that you locate the notes supplied by translator Stephen Sartarelli and to be found at the back of the book. To cap it all, Montalbano discovers a secret grotto in a mountain cave, with two young lovers, dead some fifty years but still embracing - all watched over by a life-size terracotta dog. Meanwhile, the rest of the team were dealing with a supermarket heist - the proceeds of which were inexplicably abandoned at a filling station. He wasn't giving himself up, you note - he wanted it to look as though what had happened was outside his control. Montalbano was somewhat surprised to find himself having a heart-to-heart conversation with one of the most feared Mafioso in Sicily - and even more surprised when Tano the Greek indicated that he'd like to be caught and arrested. Now you know that this is someone to watch! Definitely recommended. ![]() Summary: The second in Camilleri's Inspector Salvo Montalbano books sees the series take off. ![]()
