The Seagull's Dance

A bad early morning after a sleepless night, then a silly quarrel with Livia, right at the airport. And Montalbano had just met her; a vacation was ahead... Things weren't any better at the police station — buried in paperwork.... The day started typically and boringly.However, there was also unease: Montalbano couldn't forget what he saw that morning from the terrace of his house. The death of a seagull. The seagull didn't just fall like a stone onto the beach; it circled, awkwardly flapping its wings, as if performing a death dance. How to explain this sign? Then came a chain of events, like a thriller film, with the main role played by... Montalbano himself and his friend and colleague Fazio.A new case. And this time, it's not just work, not just a professional approach. It's a confrontation with real fears, the risk of losing someone truly close.
