I decided to save the next in the sequence until I was on holiday in Sicily in the August swelter. Non aggiungo altro per evitare spoiler.
La trama come sempre è avvincente... ma quando compro un libro d questo genere non voglio dovermi concentrare troppo sulla lettura e sulla comprensione delle parole che nn conosco.

Andrea Camilleri (born september 6, 1925 in Porto Empedocle) was an Italian writer.
Difficile perché il caldo non lascia requie. Avvincente e interessante come trama ma anche come ambientazione e idea di base.
Also in the secret apartmen. I wonder why I'd never made the connection be. Montalbano sempre astuto fino alla fine quando i sentimenti prevalgono. Another Montalbano mystery, another strange trip into this Sicilian world. I do like these books and you'd never know they were translations - very well done. This had an equally dark ending -- satisfying but with a deeply unpleasant, if predictable, twist -- to his earlier book, The Shape of Water, but it didn't really reach the same level of beauty that the other one did. But the heat must have fuddled my mind as well as Montalbano's since neither he nor I saw the end coming. Beatrice Di Leo (as Carmelinda Gentile) Gaetano Aronica. Something went wrong. Albeit that the Montalbano books have a lot more dry humour to them.
Also in the secret apartment is a trunk with the body of a murdered girl in it.

Comunque interessante. It’s August in Sicily and the heat is on Inspector Salvo Montalbano in more ways than one. Grappling with the brutal murder of a young girl, a turbulent love life, and a fruitless search for the last electric fan in town, the indomitable Montalbano approaches every situation with his customary dry wit and cynicism. Camilleri underpins the story with caustic sideswipes at the political and criminal elements of Sicilian society, which always make his books a cut above the average crime thriller. A brilliant blackly comic read with an all too human protagonist - a welcome addition to an excellent series. And when does he sleep? The victim's twin tries to seduce Montalbano!
