Segunda entrega de la serie del comisario Salvo Montalbano en la que su autor, Andrea Camilleri, ofrece al lector una imagen mucho más profunda de la rica personalidad del melancólico investigador siciliano.

Un robo absurdo en un supermercado, el encarcelamiento un tanto estrambótico de un capo de la mafia, un asesinato cometido durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sin embargo, a pesar de la firme determinación con que Montalbano afronta la resolución de estos casos, su auténtica pasión es descifrar el contenido simbólico que encierran. «Todo crimen conlleva un mensaje, la cuestión es conocer el código de quien lo ha escrito», le recuerda un excéntrico sacerdote al comisario. Así, el principal protagonista de esta novela -como de todas las que protagoniza Montalbano- es su particular forma de concebir el mundo. Los gestos, los detalles, las apariencias cobran un papel relevante, y el lenguaje se convierte en un instrumento clave para entender la realidad.

Unas pocas pinceladas, unas breves palabras le bastan a Andrea Camilleri para dibujar un profundo retrato de cualquier personaje. Su especial destreza en obtener la complicidad del lector, dejando sutiles huellas que sirven de potencial punto de encuentro, no es ajena al extraordinario éxito que ha cosechado con la serie de novelas del comisario Montalbano, verdadero héroe popular en Italia.
