'He began swimming in slow, broad strokes... In a fraction of a second, Montalbano realized he'd struck a human foot...' Increasingly disillusioned with his government and the world in general, Inspector Montalbano is considering retirement. He is starting to feel his age, and even his favourite restaurant has closed, but when he bumps into a dead body during a bracing swim, his detective instincts are aroused once more, particularly when the most likely identity of the victim is a man already long buried. Seventh in the darkly humorous mystery series with explosive characters and a snappy plot. 274 page paperback.
