La 4e de couverture indique : Chaque nouvelle enquête sur un crime effroyable attise un peu plus la mélancolie de notre commissaire Montalbano. Ici, le meurtre d'un couple de vieillards de Vigàta, sa ville légendaire, le trouble plus qu'il ne voudrait. Existe-t-il un lien avec cette autre affaire, l'exécution d'un jeune Don Juan de village ? Et qu'en est-il du mystère qu'entretient Mimi Augello, son adjoint, autour d'informations soi-disant secrètes? Pour découvrir la vérité, rien de tel que de longues méditations sous son olivier centenaire, de savoureux déjeuners en compagnie d'un fort joli témoin, et le soutien inconditionnel de son équipe face à la hiérarchie. Reste une question de taille : se résoudra-t-il enfin à épouser Livia, sa fiancée gênoise ?

Montalbano enquête sur le meurtre d'une jeune femme, négligeant les règles de service. Cela entraîne des problèmes, mais un autre défi se présente : la belle Anna.

“The novels of Andrea Camilleri breathe out the sense of place, the sense of humor, and the sense of despair that fills the air of Sicily.” —Donna Leon A rash of burglaries has got Salvo Montalbano stumped. The patterns of the crimes are so similar and so brazen that Montalbano begins to think a criminal mastermind is challenging him. This suspicion is confirmed when he starts receiving menacing letters from the gang leader, the anonymous Mr. Z. Among those burgled is the young and beautiful Angelica Cosulich, who reminds Montalbano of the love interest in Ludovico Ariosto's chivalric romance, Orlando Furioso. Taken by Angelica's charms, he imagines himself back in the medieval world of jousts and battles. But when one of the burglars turns up dead, Montalbano must snap out of his haze and unmask his challenger.

Follows Sicilian detective Inspector Montalbano as he investigates the suspicious death of an engineer who had made a name for himself in a small town.

Blade of Light is a gripping addition to the phenomenally successful Inspector Montalbano mysteries by Andrea Camilleri. For a brief moment, as Montalbano was looking, a bright blade of light flashed from the loft and shone straight in his eyes. Despite the sunglasses, he instinctively shut his eyes and when he reopened them the light was gone . . . When a gentleman arrives at Montalbano's station to report an armed robbery on his wife that ended with a kiss, the inspector's suspicions are aroused. As he delves deeper into the case, Montalbano finds that none of the witnesses' stories are adding up, and he can't help but feel that they're not meant to. When a body turns up showing all the signs of a mafia hit, the inspector knows he must excavate the truth from what he is being led to believe. Meanwhile there's a case that keeps winding its way back to Montalbano's office. A locked door has suddenly appeared on a farmer's disused shed, and then, just as quickly, the door disappears. The anti-terrorist police soon intervene, but why are they so keen to keep this away from the inspector? And why does he sense that this case is connected to him somehow? With deceit at every turn and a distraction of the heart taking over his head, Inspector Montalbano must focus if he is ever going to solve this mystery.
