Inspector Montalbano - Volume 9

The tale begins with an imaginary wedding, but more on that later....the first hint of crime is a sad, blind man touring Vigata calling out plaintively for the return of his missing daughter Michela. Her life has been a harsh one, and she ends up working in prostitution. But it seems a relationship with Saverio Moscato will change all that.

Meanwhile, Montalbano has become involved with a pair of elderly actors who are rehearsing for a performance of Romeo and Juliet. But are also clearly preparing for their final performance. So two mysteries need to be solved, and in a further complication, Livia's old boyfriend has re-appeared via social media. The madness of love, and the unpredictable behaviours of those in love, is a theme that threads all 3 plots in this excellent episode of Inspector Montalbano. Oh, the wedding? It seemed to be Salvo and Livia...
