Blade of Light is the nineteenth gripping addition to the phenomenally successful Inspector Montalbano Sicilian mysteries by Andrea Camilleri.
When a gentleman arrives at Montalbano s police station to report an armed robbery on his wife that ended with a kiss, the inspector s suspicions are aroused.
As he delves deeper into the case, Montalbano finds that none of the witnesses stories are adding up, and he can t help but feel that they re not meant to. When a body turns up showing all the signs of a mafia hit, the inspector knows he must excavate the truth from what he is being led to believe.
Meanwhile there s a case that keeps winding its way back to Montalbano s office. A locked door has suddenly appeared on a farmer s disused shed, and then, just as quickly, the door disappears. The anti-terrorist police soon intervene, but why are they so keen to keep this away from the inspector? And why does he sense that this case is connected to him somehow?
With deceit at every turn and a distraction of the heart taking over his head, Inspector Montalbano must focus if he is ever going to solve this mystery.
Blade of Light is followed by the twentieth book in the Sicilian mystery series, A Voice in the Night.
