La pista di sabbia
La pista di sabbia | Andrea Camilleri
9 posts | 7 read | 4 to read
Tra scuderie e maneggi, ippodromi e piste, tra corse clandestine e corse di beneficenza, un mondo nuovo sorprende e spiazza il commissario Montalbano. Tutto ruota attorno alla carcassa trafugata di un cavallo da corsa. E a un cadavere trovato seminudo, con un proiettile in corpo, buttato al sole e ai cani.

Spending some time with an old friend of a series. I‘ve been filing these out slowly when I need a quick read with some laughs.

4.5⭐
Book 12 of Inspector Montalbano series. Salvo looks out from the terrace and sees a dead horse on the shore. He investigates, calls his backup, goes in the house to wait, and when they look out a bit later the dead horse is gone. Horse racing, beautiful women, and of course food all play a part in this delightful series.

TrishB @Cinfhen me neither! 7y
Andrew65 @Cinfhen @TrishB They are translated from Italian (a great job is done with the translation) and are set in Sicily, great humour in them and quite a quirky main character. Quite quick and entertaining reads. There is also a tv series. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05c0br8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RW-OuoLOvs4 7y
Melissa_J I thought for sure you‘d pick the Railway Detective series! 7y
Andrew65 @Melissa_J Why didn‘t I think of that! 😳Only excuse is I‘d been to London for a Conference yesterday getting up at silly o‘clock to get there, had a bit of a bad day all round and was tired! 7y

Finished this now, yet another good read from Andrea Camilleri. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing how he sets off a good storyline when Montalbano finds a dead horse outside his window in the morning. I did enjoy the plot in this one and the interaction between the characters, as usual made me loud out loud at key points, I look forward to continuing the series. Still the odd surprise along the way.

The Track of Sand | Andrea Camilleri

Starting Book 12 of the Inspector Montalbano Series. I do love these books which are light entertaining reads based in Sicily. Andrea Camilleri has produced a good group of central characters and Inspector Montalbano, who to say the least, is very quirky. A good break from some of the more heavy reads. They have also been translated well, unlike some books.
