Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 225
On a frozen January night, a young man loops one end of a long rope over the branch of a tree. The other end he ties around his neck. A snowmobiler will find him 36 hours later, his lifeless eyes staring out at the endless coldwater of Lake Superior. It happens in a lonely corner of the Upper Peninsula, in a place they call Misery Bay, a good 250 miles west of Paradise.

So good to have Alex’s voice back
Revisado: 02-05-20
Dan John Miller gets it: tough guys don’t stage whisper, women don’t sound falsetto, bad guys don’t have hokey deep voices, and characters to happen to be Native American speak English just as well as anglos. After a detour with a different reader sent me back to print copies, this reading reminded me why I liked the Hamilton’s crisp plotting and Alex and his complex friendships so much.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 163
A rash of burglaries has Inspector Salvo Montalbano stumped. The criminals are so brazen that their leader, the anonymous Mr. Z, startssending the Sicilian inspector menacing letters. Among those burgled is the young and beautiful Angelica Cosulich, who reminds the inspector of the love-interest in Ludovico Ariosto's chivalric romance, Orlando Furioso. Besotted by Angelica's charms, Montalbano imagines himself back in the medieval world of jousts and battles.

I fell in love with and started binge listening to this series, starting with The Shape of Water. I can't read Italian, but Santarelli's translations are sublime in their own right as English prose. Gardner is just perfect at delivering the mix of humor and deep feeling that makes Camilleri so moving and special. Or to put it as Gardner has Caterella saying, he's the "Chief! Chief!"

Carl Mørck used to be one of Denmark’s best homicide detectives. Then a hail of bullets destroyed the lives of two fellow cops, and Carl - who didn’t draw his weapon - blames himself. So a promotion is the last thing he expects. But Department Q is a department of one, and Carl’s got only a stack of cold cases for company. His colleagues snicker, but Carl may have the last laugh, because one file keeps nagging at him: A liberal politician vanished five years earlier and is presumed dead. But she isn’t dead...yet.

Funny Accent? WHY???
Revisado: 03-26-19
When a book is translated into English, we assume that the native speakers in the original language speak without an accent. So why did the producers of this book opt to have the reader use ridiculous "foreign" accents for ALL of the characters. They all talk like they have marbles in their mouths, they all sound the same, and it makes for hard listening.
