A young Don Juan is found murdered in front of his apartment building early one morning, and an elderly couple is reported missing after an excursion to the ancient site of Tindari - two seemingly unrelated cases for Inspector Montalbano to solve amid the daily complications of life at Vigàta police headquarters.

But when Montalbano discovers that the couple and the murdered young man lived in the same building, his investigation stumbles onto Sicily's brutal "New Mafia," which leads him down a path more evil and far-reaching than any he has been on before.

Six books into this series, the town of Vigata and the cast of regular characters have become as familiar as the place I live and the people with whom I work. So far from breeding contempt, it makes every interaction—serious or humorous—that much more serious or humorous.

Another attraction, at least for me, is the way these stories are told. Rather than letting you fret about that clue you may have missed, Camilleri just wants you to follow along. You’re not going to solve the mystery, so instead you enjoy the characters, their interplay, and the loving descriptions of every meal Montalbano eats.

Now, almost a quarter century after this story was published, with the EU imposing abortion as a requirement for membership, the US making foreign aid contingent on its acceptance, and China harvesting organs from its 1.5 million detainees, the global medical horror show that resides at the heart of this mystery fails to shock as it might once have done. Nevertheless, that doesn’t detract from the excellence of the writing or Grover Gardner’s performance.

I have recently discovered this wonderful series based in Sicily. And now I can’t stop. Even though these books were written many years ago, the stories are fresh and very interesting. I am not overly impressed with the narration, however. Too reminiscent of Brooklyn. But still I listen because the characters are enjoyable and the plots are interesting. Bring on the next book.

A great series
