<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>When Auntie Poldi finds a body in a vineyard, she sets out to solve another murder--with the Mafia nipping at her heels--in "another wine-snortingly funny entry"* in the national bestselling series. (*<i>People</i> Magazine)</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>When Auntie Poldi finds a body in a vineyard, she sets out to solve another murder--with the Mafia nipping at her heels--in "another wine-snortingly funny entry"* in the national bestselling series. (*<i>People</i> Magazine)</b> <p/> "Long may she reign."--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> (starred review) <p/> When Prosecco-loving Auntie Poldi retired to Sicily from Germany, she never dreamed her tranquil days would be interrupted by murder. But Sicily had other plans, and Poldi found herself honor-bound to solve the disappearance of her beloved (and cute) handyman. <p/> Now she's finally ready for some peace and quiet--interrupted by romantic encounters with handsome Chief Inspector Montana, of course--when the water supply to her neighborhood is cut off and a dear friend's dog is poisoned, telltale signs that a certain familial organization is flexing its muscles. Poldi knows there will be no resolution without her help. She soon finds a body in a vineyard, tangles with the Mafia, and yet again makes herself unpopular in the pursuit of justice. But once wine and murder mix, how could she possibly stay away? <p/> This is a sexy and thrilling follow-up to Mario Giordano's debut novel, <i>Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions, </i> hailed by Adriana Trigiani as "an explosion of color [and] a celebration of the palette of Italian life and the Sicilian experience in its specificity, warmth and drama." <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Raise a glass, Auntie Poldi's back! . . .

Long may she reign." <b>-<i>Kirkus, </i>starred review</b> <p/> "Sharp, hilarious...particularly fun and well executed [with] humorous observations on the quirks of Sicilian life. Readers will look forward to the further adventures of the irrepressible Auntie Poldi." <b><i>-Publisher's Weekly</i>, starred review</b> <p/><b>Praise for <i>Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions</i>: </b> <p/><b>A National Bestseller <br> IndieNext List Pick <br> B&N Discover Pick <br> Costco Staff Pick <br> Amazon Top Ten Best Book of the Month</b> <p/> "Break out the prosecco! There's a new detective in town - and she's 60, sexy, wise and utterly adorable."--<i>People </i> <p/> "A new detective is among us. Mario Giordano's Auntie Poldi joins her peers Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano and Alexander McCall Smith's Mma Precious Ramotswe in winning our hearts. She's a lusty, bold woman who dives into Sicilian life with gusto."<i>--</i>Frances Mayes, author of <i>Under the Tuscan Sun</i> <p/> "Poldi is flamboyant, earthy, and always forthright."--<i>Library Journal</i> <p/> "There's a new star in the mystery firmament, and her name is Auntie Poldi."--Alan Bradley, author of <i>The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie</i> <p/> "To the ranks of amateur sleuths from Miss Marple to Jessica Fletcher, welcome Auntie Poldi."--<i>Newsday</i> <p/> "As types of amateur sleuths go, the category of lusty Bavarian widow has been woefully underrepresented--until now."<i>--Booklist </i>(starred review)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>MARIO GIORDANO, the son of Italian immigrants, was born in Munich. <i>Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions</i>, his first novel translated into English, was an Indie Next Pick, a B&N Discover Selection, an Amazon Top Ten Best Book of the Month, and a Costco staff pick.
