    "description": "<p>The Terracotta Dog, the second book in Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano series, opens with a mysterious t&ecirc;te-&agrave;-t&ecirc;te with a Mafioso, some inexplicably abandoned loot from a supermarket heist, and some dying words that lead Inspector Montalbano to a secret grotto in a mountain cave where two young lovers dead fifty years and still embracing are watched over by a life-size terracotta dog. Montalbano's passion to solve this old crime takes him, heedless of personal danger, on a journey through the island's past and into a family's dark heart amid the horrors of World War II.<br />Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Salvo Montalbano has garnered millions of fans worldwide with his sardonic, engaging take on Sicilian small-town life and his genius for deciphering the most enigmatic of crimes.<br />The Terracotta Dog is followed by the third title in this satirical and humorous series, The Snack Thief.</p>",
