Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions by Mario Giordano

3.0

I think this was trying to be a cross between Mma Ramotswe and Inspector Montalbano and for my money, didn't quite hit the mark. I picked this up to read on my holiday in Sicily, and while I enjoyed visiting some of the places depicted in the book, it felt like Sicily as an island was the strongest character in this. I wanted to like this more than I did. It was ok, but I really struggled with the pages of euphemisms for sex, which began to grate on me rather.
