Donna Poldina is back!
Poldi’s
life in Sicily as chronicled by her nephew is jogging along nicely; until the
water for the whole of Via Baronessa is cut off and a dear friend’s dog is
poisoned. Poldi sees the mafia at work, after all a local judge has just been
found murdered but Poldi’s lover, Commissario Vito Montana won’t let her into
his investigation; so Poldi starts her own.
She assembles a team, a rather
creaky one and it doesn’t take long for the fur to start flying. A complicated
web of vineyards, water rights, a dodgy psychic, activist groups, some cranky
German tourists a not-so-undercover FBI agent and even the mafia conspire to
stop Poldi and her pensioners from solving the case. Can Poldi prevail? and if
she succeeds she could lose Montana forever.
