There's only one Auntie Poldi: bewigged, cursing in Bavarian, and
knocking back a wee shot of grappa as a pre-breakfast aperitif ...
or is there? No one is as they seem (and sound) in this hilarious
new mystery featuring Sicily's sultriest sleuth. Strange dealings
are afoot in the Apostolic Palace-a nun leapt to her death shortly
after participating in a seemingly routine exorcism. But when a
priest clad in Gammarelli and a Vatican Commissario with an almost
unholy level of sex appeal turn up at her door, Poldi is shocked to
hear that she's a suspect in their case. Who is the woman being
exorcised, and where has she disappeared to? And why in the world
does she claim, in perfect Bavarian, to be Poldi, Isolde
Oberreiter, of Torre Achirafari? Poldi will need all the help she
can get to clear her name, but her nephew has been distracted by a
love affair gone sour, someone in the town has been graffitiing
death threats on her front door, and her local friends seem to be
avoiding her. And even Vito Montana balks when Poldi discovers that
the case hinges on a lost Madonna statue, stolen years ago from the
Pope himself... Forza Poldi! With a pair of mysterious twins
dogging her every move and a mandate to maintain sobriety, will
Poldi be able to find the lost statue in time, and survive her
sixty-first birthday?
