false 69343 24 Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Salvo Montalbano has garnered millions of fans worldwide with his sardonic, engaging take on Sicilian life and his genius for deciphering the most enigmatic of crimes. <br><br> <i>The Terra-cotta Dog</i> opens with the inspector's mysterious tête-à-tête with a mafioso, some inexplicably abandoned loot from a supermarket heist, and dying words that lead him to an illegal arms cache in a mountain cave. There, in a secret grotto, he finds a harrowing scene: two young lovers, dead fifty years and still embracing, watched over by a life-size terra-cotta dog. Montalbano's passion to solve this old crime takes him, heedless of personal danger, on a journey through the island's past and into a family's dark heart amid the horrors of World War II bombardment. <br><br> From sly comedy at the expense of his fellow policemen to personal soul searching that helps him enter the minds of those he must investigate, Montalbano is a detective whose earthiness and imagination coalesce into a unique, unfailing appeal. 67215 1996 The Terra-Cotta Dog (Inspector Montalbano Mysteries) total:314|5:57|4:148|3:92|2:14|1:3| 314 1184 389 35 3 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 01 20:32:44 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 01 20:41:01 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Nov 05 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 22 23:22:37 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 06 21:29:43 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 01 14:59:42 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 03 19:11:38 -0800 2008 more...]]> 2 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 17 13:18:59 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 17 13:19:18 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 16:18:35 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 16:22:21 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Jun 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 15 11:32:46 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 13 10:58:47 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Aug 03 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 09:24:24 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 09:26:56 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 19:52:40 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 19:54:45 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Thu Jun 07 15:28:35 -0700 2007 Thu Jun 07 15:28:47 -0700 2007 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Jul 22 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 21 17:21:34 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 22 11:09:55 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Apr 01 11:35:22 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 01 11:39:27 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Jul 25 16:50:04 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 25 16:51:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Feb 25 04:04:52 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 18:09:04 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Mar 11 00:31:10 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 21 06:58:26 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jan 16 07:51:55 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 16 07:57:15 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sat Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Nov 30 06:36:53 -0800 2007 Tue Dec 04 07:24:25 -0800 2007 more...]]> 0 0 false false Sat Jan 03 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Mar 19 17:23:00 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 19 17:23:21 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Thu Jan 24 17:41:47 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 24 17:41:47 -0800 2008
