We’re starting a new monthly discussion series focused on mysteries, and the series will begin with The Shape of Water by Andrea Camilleri.  Wildly popular in Europe, Camilleri’s books feature Salvo Montalbano, police inspector in the small Sicilian town of Vigata.  In this title, Montalbano has a potentially explosive case on his plate: a local politician has been found dead in his car, apparently the victim of a heart attack.  No melancholic brooder, Montalbano puts a comic face on the noir world, sorting through multiple layers of corruption Sicilian style, while still finding time to enjoy a good lunch.  The series will be facilitated by Judy Dearlove, who has called Durham home for over three decades.  A passionate reader, she has also taught literature at several local colleges, including Duke, Meredith, and Elon.  Currently, she is engaged in the mysterious process of writing a novel.
