The Snack Thief Audiobook (Free)

Never has Inspector Montalbano’s character – a distinctive mixture of humor, cynicism, compassion, earthiness, and love of very good meals – been more compelling than in Andrea Camilleri’s third Montalbano novel, The Snack Thief.

When an older man is certainly stabbed to loss of life within an elevator and a crewman with an Italian angling trawler is usually machine-gunned by a Tunisian patrol fishing boat off Sicily’s coast, just Inspector Montalbano suspects a connection between the two incidents. His investigation network marketing leads to the stunning Karima, an impoverished home cleaner and sometime prostitute, whose young son steals additional college children’s mid-morning snacks. But Karima disappears, and the youthful snack thief’s life – as well as Montalbano’s – is endangered when the inspector exposes a viper’s nest of government corruption and international intrigue.

The Snack Thief is followed by the fourth Inspector Montalbano novel, The Voice of the Violin.
