From the Italian crime legend, Andrea Camilleri, comes "The Potter's Field," winner of the CWA International Dagger award and the thirteenth installment in the Inspector Montalbano series. As Vigàta is hit by storms, Inspector Montalbano is called to oversee the discovery of a dismembered body in a field of clay. Bearing all the hallmarks of an execution-style killing, it seems clear it is once again the work of the notorious local mafia. But who is the victim? Why was the body divided into thirty pieces? And what is the significance of the Potter's Field?

Working to decipher these clues, Montalbano must also deal with the strange and difficult behavior of his old colleague Mimi and avoid distraction from the captivating Dolores Alfano - who seeks the inspector's help to find her missing husband. But like the Potter's Field, Montalbano is on dangerous ground, and one thing is for certain - nothing is as it seems.
