The Potter's Field by Andrea Camilleri

4.0

My favorite detective series of all time. Just the right mix of humor and cunning. Montalbano seems ready for retirement but Camilleri has him masterfully pulling the strings like a puppetmaster on a very complex case that appears to be a slam dunk. In this mystery we have: a dismembered body; a beautiful woman(Latina) who leaves men agape reports her husband, a sailor, missing; the Mafia looks to be involved-drug smuggling?; one of Montalbano's leading detectives is really moody. As usual there are many moments of laughter with the incapable assistant of Montalbano getting all the names wrong and the messages messed up. It will be a sad day when this series ends.
