August Heat: An Inspector Montalbano Mystery

August Heat - Stephen Sartarelli, Andrea Camilleri A solid Montalbano. You get the main ingredients that makes this series set in Sicily so delightful : food, an investigation that involves local traditions (mafia, corruption and a twisted individual), Montalbano trying to be good and in this one book in particular being too good for his own good. I did see the ending coming a mile away than again, I'm not an aging detective trying to be loyal to oneself and his values. Just saying. A very solid 3 stars.
