About “The age of doubt”
In this 2008 novel by Andrea Camilleri, Inspector Montalbano dreams of a stormy sea representing unease and loss of control. The next day, a boat is found in the port of Vigata containing a disfigured corpse. An eighty-five-foot luxury boat with fifty passengers and a shadowy crew must remain in Vigata during the investigation, as the man appears to have been poisoned, drawing Montalbano's focus to the yacht's owner and sailors.
Praise for “The age of doubt”
“There’s a deliciously playful quality to the mysteries Andrea Camilleri writes about a lusty Sicilian police detective named Salvo Montalbano.”
“The books are full of sharp, precise characterizations and with subplots that make Montalbano endearingly human… Like the antipasti that Montalbano contentedly consumes, the stories are light and easily consumed, leaving one eager for the next course.”
“This series is distinguished by Camilleri’s remarkable feel for tragicomedy, expertly mixing light and dark in the course of producing novels that are both comforting and disturbing.”
