“You either love Andrea Camilleri or you haven’t read him yet. Each novel in this wholly addictive, entirely magical series, set in Sicily and starring a detective unlike any other in crime fiction, blasts the brain like a shot of pure oxygen... transporting. Long live Camilleri, and long live Montalbano.”
—A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window 


Set on the Sicilian coast, a collection of eight short stories featuring the young Inspector Montalbano


In 1980s Vigàta, a restless Inspector Montalbano brings his bold investigative style to eight enthralling cases. From jilted lovers and deadly family affairs to assassination attempts and murders in unexpected places, Death at Sea is the perfect collection to escape into Andrea Camilleri's unforgettable slice of Sicily.

short-stories, series, law-enforcement, Sicily, murder-investigation Camilleri does great short stories! Each is pretty much independent of the others except for the continuing characters, and even if a reader has been deprived of other Montalbano books there would be no problem with enjoyment. Thanks be for the translation by Steven Sartarelli and audio interpretation by Grover Gardner!
