![]() Italian Literature (253) Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. Mimi Augello is called out when a man is shot on a fishing boat, claiming it occurred in international waters. Montalbano investigates a man's death on an apartment building elevator. A woman tied to the investigation disappeared, but when Montalbano hears of a child stealing lunches, he suspects it is the woman's hungry child. Montalbano's relationship with Livia continues in this installment. I listened to the audio version read by Grover Gardner because of his superb narration of the series even though I own the paperback. ( ![]() I'd mark this one slightly higher than The Terra Cotta Dog. Montalbano is faced with three problems: a man killed in an elevator, a man shot on a fishing boat, and a young boy that is stealing lunches. Of course, they are all connected. The story reveals a lot about Montalbano's character. Commissario Montalbano kann sich über einen Mangel an Arbeit nicht beklagen. Denn in Vigàta, dem malerischen Städtchen an der sizilianischen Küste, geschehen gleich zwei Morde: Auf einem Fischerboot wird während einer nächtlichen Ausfahrt ein Tunesier erschossen, und der sizilianische Geschäftsmann Lapecora wird im Aufzug seines Wohnhauses erstochen aufgefunden. Die beiden Opfer haben, außer der Tatsache, daß sie tot sind, offensichtlich nichts gemeinsam. So scheint es zumindest, bis Commissario Montalbano ein drittes "Verbrechen? aufklärt: Bei einer überraschenden Polizeiaktion ertappt er auf frischer Tat einen Dieb, der seit ein paar Tagen im Ort für Aufregung sorgt. Der geheimnisvolle Übeltäter bringt den Commissario auf die Spur der schönen Tunesierin Karima. Und eben diese wie sich herausstellt in Vigàta nicht unbekannte Schöne ist das, was die beiden Morde miteinander verbindet. Inspector Montalbano himself is displayed more to the reader as he investigates the murder of retired importer, tries to avoid involvement in a death at sea brought to his home port and finds both invading his own life. The food element is very seductive - these books should be read on a full belly or within easy reach of favorite treats. Just funny! Very funny! I'm celebrating summer by reading this delightful series with wonderful patter about food and hilarious interchanges and a distaste for violence. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

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 off Sicily's coast, only Inspector Montalbano, with his keen insight into human nature, suspects the link between the two incidents. His investigation leads to the beautiful Karima, an impoverished housecleaner and occasional prostitute, whose young son steals other schoolchildren's midmorning snacks. But Karima disappears, and the young snack thief's life, as well as Montalbano's, is endangered when the inspector exposes a viper's nest of government corruption and international intrigue.
