In his fourth mystery to feature Inspector Salvo Montalbano, Camilleri once again thrills with his fluid storytelling and quirky characters.
Montalbano's gruesome discovery of a lovely, naked young woman suffocated in her bed immediately sets him on a search for her killer.
Among the suspects are her ageing husband, a famous doctor; a shy admirer, now disappeared; an antiques-dealing lover from Bologna; and the victim's friend Anna, whose charms Montalbano cannot help but appreciate.
But it is a mysterious, reclusive violinist who holds the key to this murder.
