About this listen
The fisherman who pulls Sophia out of the harbor has a secret, and she's dying to know it, but hopefully not literally. Sophia decides to take a vacation in the South of France to get away from troubles back home from her ex and work. As she strolls along the quayside, she trips over a discarded rope and head over heels falls into the dock.
About to be turned into mincemeat by the propeller of a trawler, she's saved by a fisherman. Partly as a thank you gesture, but mostly because he's the coolest and best-looking guy she has ever met, she takes him out to dinner where she becomes intrigued with this man who seems to be only masquerading as a poor fisherman.
Who is he? And what is the secret he's hiding? She wants to know. As a romance develops, she's drawn into his world so different from her own.

Story
Auntie Poldi, sassy, brassy, and 60, moves to Sicily for a quiet alcohol-fuelled retirement. A murder spoils her plans. This is the first novel in a charming new mystery series set in Sicily and laced with Italian sensuality and humor. It features an amateur sleuth, the sassy and foul-mouthed Auntie Poldi. Recently widowed Poldi moves to Sicily in order to quietly drink herself to death with a sea view, but fate intervenes. When she finds the corpse of a young man on the beach, his face blown off with a sawn-off shotgun, she becomes a potential suspect in his murder case.
