About the Book

La primera de las aventuras del conocido comisario Salvo Montalbano.

Una serie novela policiaca ambientada en Sicilia que ha sido alabada por público y crítica y cuya serie de televisión lleva emitiéndose 20 años en Italia.

En una cálida noche siciliana, tras nadar un buen rato en las tranquilas aguas que se remansan a escasos metros de su casa a orillas del mar, Salvo Montalbano emerge de la oscuridad con las ideas más claras: la solución del caso le ronda las narices, así que sólo es cuestión de paciencia y método, para lo cual nada mejor que relajarse antes con algún manjar preparado por Adelina, su fiel asistenta.

Si a los asiduos lectores de Andrea Camilleri esta escena les resultará familiar, los lectores no iniciados merecen una breve introducción: Salvo Montalbano tiene cuarenta y cinco años, conserva una novia en Génova y es comisario de policía del pequeño pueblo de Vigàta, en Sicilia, que si bien no se encuentra en ningún mapa de este mundo es más real que la vida misma. Fiel amigo de sus amigos, amante de la buena mesa y sabedor de que la tierra ha girado y girará muchas veces en torno al sol, Montalbano es el compendio vivo de las antiquísimas culturas mediterráneas. Su calidad humana, unida a su infalible perspicacia, han hecho de su creador, Andrea Camilleri, uno de los autores más leídos de Europa.

En esta ocasión, un conocido político y empresario aparece muerto semidesnudo en el interior de su coche en un arrabal donde reinan la prostitución y la droga. Todo apunta a que ha fallecido de un ataque al corazón después de haber mantenido relaciones íntimas con una persona desconocida. Sin embargo, el comisario Montalbano no se fía, y armado con su natural olfato para los comportamientos extraños, se propone descubrir la trama sexual y política que se esconde tras el presunto crimen.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"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

The Shape of Water is the first book in the sly, witty, and engaging Inspector Montalbano mystery series with its sardonic take on Sicilian life. Silvio Lupanello, a big-shot in Vigàta, is found dead in his car with his pants around his knees. The car happens to be parked in a part of town used by prostitutes and drug dealers, and as the news of his death spreads, the rumors begin. Enter Inspector Salvo Montalbano, Vigàta's most respected detective. With his characteristic mix of humor, cynicism, compassion, and love of good food, Montalbano battles against the powerful and corrupt who are determined to block his path to the real killer.

Andrea Camilleri's novels starring Inspector Montalbano have become an international sensation and have been translated into numberous languages.
