Publisher Description

An Aurelio Zen Novel

Michael Dibdin's overburdened Italian police inspector has been transferred to Naples, where the rule of law is so lax that a police station may double as a brothel. But this time, having alienated superiors with his impolitic zealousness in every previous posting, Zen is determined not to make waves.

Too bad an American sailor (who may be neither American nor a sailor) knifes one of his opposite numbers in Naples's harbor, and some local garbage collectors have taken to moonlighting in homicide. And when Zen becomes embroiled in a romantic intrigue involving love-sick gangsters and prostitutes who pass themselves off as Albanian refugees, all Naples comes to resemble the set of the Mozart opera of the same title. Bawdy, suspenseful, and splendidly farcical, the result is an irresistible offering from a maestro of mystery.

Cosi fan tutti

Fell I love with the Zen character plated by Rufus Sewell on the PBS version. The Zen in this book is more a caricature . Haven't seen the opera it takes it's name from but I suspect the story parodies it. I enjoyed the book but reading it on ebook was hard because I wanted to back up and reread some of the twists of the plot and figure out the translations of the chapter titles.

Bad

Worst of the series. Straining to be clever just makes a poor story. Recommend avoiding wasting your money (and time).
