Review Quotes:
"The irascible police inspector Salvo Montalbano...is splendidly evoked by Grover Gardner...Italian accents do not rule Gardener's narration, but the voices of the gruff Montalbano, his seductive female acquaintances, and his hard-pressed staff are all unique snapshots of character...Immensely entertaining."
