Kirkus (starred review)
All the beloved, irascible Auntie Poldi wanted from her Sicilian retirement was time to enjoy sunshine, a free-flowing supply of wine, and a sultry romance with Chief Inspector Montana.

Where is John's half-brother? What is the ten-million-dollar "it" that John's brother was last seen with that has both the Sicilian and Tanzanian mobs...
