Inspector Montalbano is at home recuperating after he was shot by a child trafficker. "But his recuperation is hampered by the demands of a new case: the abduction of Susanna Mistretta, an attractive university student and daughter of a geologist. Unable to trust his colleagues to handle the case properly, Montalbano focuses on subtle anomalies, such as the direction the missing girl's motorbike was pointed, that suggest the kidnapping is more than the simple extortion attempt it appears to be."--Publisher's Weekly.
