Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. i was excited when I read the descriptions of this series as being world noir and a mix between Blomqvist and Harry Hole. Instead I found endless descriptions of spring in various depressing and uninteresting Naples neighborhoods. 343 pages to endlessly discuss and commiserate over one seemingly insignificant murder and the romantic daydreams of the two active detectives. Instead of noir, I would call this Psychoesque ending as being firmly in the tradition of the school of boring realism. ( ) Si pudiera decirlo, lo diría así: me llamo Luigi Alfredo Ricciardi y veo a los muertos. Así se presentó a sus lectores el comisario Ricciardi en la primera entrega de la serie, y aquí lo tenemos de nuevo, ensimismado y algo melancólico, en abril de 1931, cuando el fascismo vive sus mejores momentos y en la ciudad de Nápoles el viento remueve el ánimo de los ciudadanos. Como siempre, Ricciardi, que tiene el don de ver a los muertos y escuchar sus últimas palabras, camina sin sombrero por las callejuelas de la ciudad, esta vez intentando buscar el culpable de la muerte de Carmela Calise, una anciana que vive en un piso miserable y se gana el sustento como vidente. Un buen día alguien la encuentra muerta, desfigurada por una paliza que parece instigada por el odio, y la investigación empieza. Che succede a giocare con le illusioni, a cancellare i sogni? Una cartomante e un'usuraia, nella stessa persona: inventare il futuro e sbriciolarlo tra le dita. Mentre la città si apre alla primavera, nel solito trionfo di profumi e canzoni, il più tenero degli amori diventa la peggiore delle condanne: e spegne nel sangue anche il ricordo di un'antica passione.

"Naples, 1931. In a working class apartment in the Sanita' neighborhood an elderly woman by the name of Carmela Calise has been beaten to death. When Ricciardi and Maione arrive at the scene they start asking the neighbors questions. No one wants to talk but slowly a few interesting facts slip out. Carmela Calise was moonlighting as a fortuneteller and moneylender. In her decrepit apartment she would receive clients, among them some of the city's rich and powerful, predicting their futures in such a way as to manipulate and deceive. If economic ruin lurked in their futures, Calise was happy to help. For a price, of course. She had many enemies, those indebted to her, manipulated by her lies, disappointed by her prophesies or destroyed by her machinations. Murder suspects in this atmospheric thriller abound and Commissario Ricciardi, one of the most original and intriguing investigators in contemporary crime fiction, will have his work cut out for him"--Book jacket.
