“This is one of the most delightful books I’ve read for some time. [...] Camilleri weaves his story with a perfect mixture of elegance and earthy humour, from the high-life of the rich to the low-life of organised child prostitution. The parallels with modern Italy are inescapable, but this is no political or social tract: it’s an electrifying thriller, a tale of plots and counter-plots, of misogyny and greed, all superbly rendered into English by Stephen Sartarelli.”
