Montalbano investigates the death of wealthy accountant Barletta in a case involving a string of mistresses and family secrets.
Inspector Montalbano enjoys simple pleasures: delicious food, walks along the water, the occasional smokeâyet these are just the backdrop to his duties as a detective.
His latest case is the killing of the wealthy Cosimo Barletta. Thought to be a widower living out a quiet life by the sea, Cosimoâs sudden death, by gunshot to the neck, opens up his past to scrutiny. What Montalbano uncovers is Cosimoâs trove of salacious photographs, used to extort young women, and a history full of greed and corruption. Montalbano, though resolved to find the killer, muses on where justice liesâin his pursuit of a suspect or with one of Cosimoâs innumerable victims getting the revenge they deserved?
