At long last I have read a book by Leonardo Sciascia. This book has long been on my TBR pile and lost amongst the shuffle.

I loved the book from start to finish and it is interesting to see the case built up and the tactics and thought process of the Captain. And how with the politics and influence of people associated with the Mafia a rock solid case melted away like a chocolate teacup. A frustrating and very real occurrence of the past and present.

I own many more books by Sciascia, and a recent biography too, and I am looking forward to getting into those too. This book has helped me break a reading slump.
