Description
The first in a charming series of vivid, Sicilian-set mysteries starring Poldi as an unconventional, prosecco-loving amateur sleuth.
When Poldi decides to retire to sun-drenched Sicily, she envisages sea views, drinking a lot of wine and, perhaps, some visits from her Sicilian family. Rediscovering her own Italian roots, Poldi soon finds herself also having to draw upon her experience growing as the daughter of a police detective when Poldi s helper and handyman Valentino is found dead. Promising to help, Poldi finds herself almost alone investigating the circumstances of his suspicious death. Narrated by her nephew, the story includes beautiful scenery, a cast idiosyncratic characters including the handsome Chief Inspector Montana and the redoubtable Poldi s determined search for the truth. In English translation from the original German by Mario Giordano (b.1963), the German-born author whose work draws upon his parents Italian heritage.
