  • "Beim Schwimmen im Meer kollidiert Commissario Montalbano mit einer Leiche. Wie sich herausstellt, ist der Ertrunkene nur einer von vielen Menschen - illegalen Einwanderern, die von Schleppern nachts auf Booten abgesetzt werden?, die das Meer an die sizilianische Küste spült. Als Montalbano Nachforschungen anstellt, nimmt eine Tragödie gewaltigen Ausmasses Gestalt an, die schliesslich in dunkler Tiefe zu einem unvergesslichen Ort des Verbrechens führt."

  • "Pervasive corruption has much to do with Montalbano's growing sense of powerlessness, but, in his seventh adventure, the shenanigans of his superiors and the politicians behind them are coupled with the evil underside of the opening of Europe's borders: the buying and selling of immigrant children (to be used either as slave labor, toys for pedophiles, or the source of illegal organ transplants)."
  • "Sicilian detective Inspector Montalbano enters the secret world of illicit trafficking in human lives."
  • "The earthy and urbane Sicilian detective Inspector Montalbano casts his spell on more and more fans with each new mystery from Andrea Camilleri. Two seemingly unrelated deaths form the central mystery of Rounding the Mark. They will take Montalbano deep into a secret world of illicit trafficking in human lives, and the investigation will test the limits of his physical, psychological, and moral endurance. Disillusioned and no longer believing in the institution he serves, will he withdraw or delve deeper into his work'"@en
  • "Frustrated by his department's repressive handling of security for the G8 summit in Genoa, Montalbano seriously considers resigning. His attempt to unwind with a casual swim along the Sicilian seashore fails when he discovers a corpse in the water. The inspector's pursuit of the cause of death intersects with another mystery?the inquiry into a hit-and-run that claimed the life of a young boy who may have been victimized by human traffickers. When Montalbano realizes that he may have inadvertently aided the boy's victimizers, his internal turmoil intensifies."@en
  • ""Malgr ̌les injonctions de sa fiancě Livia, le commissaire Montalbano a dčid ̌de dm̌issionner. Les v̌ňements de juillet 2001 ̉Gn̊es, marquš par le comportement scandaleux d'une bonne partie des forces de l'ordre, lui font perdre toute confiance dans le corps auquel il appartient. Sa dčision prise, il veut, comme ̉l'accoutumě, se db̌arrasser de la laideur du monde en nageant dans cette mer qu'il a sous ses fent̊res. Et voici qu'il heurte le cadavre d'un inconnu en ťat de dčomposition avancě, aux poignets et aux chevilles portant la marque de liens. Ce coup de force du destin le contraint ̉reprendre son boulot de flic. Sur cette ct̥e sicilienne tourně vers l'Afrique, d'autres corps čhouent, ceux des immigrš clandestins dont des fřoces mafias organisent le trafic. Un enfant meurt, renvers ̌par une voiture...Un Camilleri o ̮les habituels ingrďients, saveurs siciliennes, truculences langagir̈es, odeurs de la mer et intrigues tortueuses sont comme assombris par la mľancolie qui s'est emparě de l'auteur et de son hřos devant les noirceurs de l'p̌oque."
  • "Malgré les injonctions de sa fiancée Livia, le commissaire Montalbano a décidé de démissionner. Depuis les événements de juillet 2001 à Gênes, il n'a plus confiance dans la police.
