A Man Called Ove meets Inspector Montalbano, Auntie Poldi leaves no stone unturned in her quest for answers. Wine and murder - nothing is more likely to rouse Auntie Poldi's love of the chase.

Still relishing the notoriety from her spectacular resolution of the Candela case, Poldi is alive to the faintest whiff of criminality. What to others might seem a series of misfortunes - the water supply cut off, a poisoned dog - is clearly, to Poldi, an escalation: the Mafia have had her in their sights ever since she solved Valentino's murder.

Poldi has tasted blood. No one is above suspicion. And trouble will surely follow....

I thought this was a good follow up to Sicilian Lions. I really liked the plot,

Poldi continues to be a sassy woman who struggles with alcoholism and depression. Which explains why she can be so mean to her nephew at times. She does experience consequences for her unofficial private investigator actions.

There continues to be some funny moments and antidotes from Poldi's life (the voice acting for Cher was very funny).

In this second book there are noticeable reoccurring themes: Uncle Martino's theories on the CIA and the mafia (I loved those!), how the mafia is like a vampire, how the warring police departments are stereotypical dumb cops and how her nephew's epic family saga is convoluted (those parts of the story go off the rails and I stop listening sometimes).

There is also all the little tidbits about Sicilian culture, life and food that are my favorite.

Salute!

I love Auntie Poldi! She is headstrong and full of character and has quite the view of life. I laughed out loud several times while listening to this book. Very entertaining and a great story. When is the next book being released ???

Great Story!

The second story about Auntie Poldi is just plain fun and doesn’t suffer from sophomore slump. The story continues to follow Auntie Poldi’s life in Sicily and includes familiar characters from the first book while adding new faces. The narrator convincingly voices the different players. Madcap decisions and escapades are combined with character growth. Undoubtedly neighboring drivers wondered what I was laughing at during my gridlocked commute yesterday. I’m looking forward to the third book - hope it’s released by Audible very soon.

Jolts of Poldis always creative and entertaining musings scattered throughout the story. Her magnetic spirit endears. The narrator brings her to her fullest! He is magic.

Story is a joy, the narrator- exquisite

I've really enjoyed the first two, but the next two are only available in German. I should be better at that language, but am not capable enough to enjoy listening to a book in that language. I look forward to the translations.

When can we expect books 3 and 4 in English?

This series is so well-written, funny, smart, and full of lovable characters. Not dark or too scary. The plot pulls you in and the stories move fast. So fun, just what I’ve been wishing for in my mystery loving reading life!

Warm-hearted, witty mystery

Love Aunti Poldi’s quirky nephew and friends almost as much as the lady herself. Both books have been rollicking good reads, and I know a thing or two about rollicking good reads. Probably, I am not the only one who wants more Poldi stories. Soon, if you please.

More Poldi, please
