Series: Inspector Montalbano

When an elderly man is stabbed to death in an elevator and a crewman on an Italian fishing trawler is machine-gunned by a Tunisian patrol boat off Sicily's coast, only Inspector Montalbano suspects a link between the two incidents. His investigation leads to the beautiful Karima, an impoverished house cleaner and sometime prostitute, whose young son steals other school children's mid-morning snacks. But Karima disappears, and the young snack thief's life - as well as Montalbano's - is endangered when the inspector exposes a viper's nest of government corruption and international intrigue.

Never has Inspector Montalbano's character - a unique blend of humor, cynicism, compassion, earthiness and love of good food - been more compelling than in Andrea Camilleri's third Montalbano novel, The Snack Thief.

Reviews for The Snack Thief

'Both farcical and endearing, Montalbano is a cross between Columbo and Chandler's Philip Marlowe, with the added culinary idiosyncrasies of an Italian Maigret.' -- The Guardian
