The specific world of offshore wealth and the assumptions that come with it; Montalbano's combination of attraction and distrust for a world that operates on different rules than Vigàta
What this book is about
A storm brings a large yacht into the harbor at Vigàta, and among the passengers is a beautiful woman who is shortly found dead. Inspector Montalbano investigates the yacht's passengers and the specific world they represent — wealthy, mobile, and used to their circumstances arranging themselves around them. Andrea Camilleri's tenth Montalbano novel maintains the series' characteristic pleasures — the food, the Sicilian social observation, the supporting cast — while adding the specific world of offshore wealth and what it does to the people who move within it.
