Description
Alive with a tang of lemons to set the senses zinging The SpectatorTranslated fiction at its most charming - A Man Called Ove meets Andrea Camilleri, Auntie Poldi is this summer s most unlikely hero.Auntie Poldi can think of no finer place to wait for death than Sicily. All she asks is a sea view, fine wine (and plenty of it), and her family close around.When death instead takes her handsome young friend Valentino - and under mysterious circumstances at that - Poldi will not take it lying down.Perhaps it s in her blood (her father was a detective chief inspector); perhaps it s a diverting excuse to spend more time with men in uniform; or perhaps it s just the promise she makes to Valentino while holding his poor dead hand.But Auntie Poldi s hunting instincts have never felt more alive. Justice must be served - if it s the last thing she does ...Auntie Poldi and the Fruits of the Lord, the second Auntie Poldi adventure, is now available for preorder
