The Pyramid of Mud is the twenty-second Inspector Montalbano mystery from Italy\'s finest crime writer, Andrea Camilleri.
It\'s been raining for days in Vigata, and the persistent downpours have led to violent floods overtaking the Inspector\'s beloved hometown, sweeping across the land and leaving only a sea of mud behind.
The investigation is slow and slippery to start with, but when Montalbano realizes that every clue he uncovers and every person he interviews is leading to the same place: the world of public spending - and with it, the Mafia - the case begins to pick up pace.
But there\'s one question that keeps playing on Montalbano\'s mind: in his strange and untimely death, was Giuglu Nicotra trying to tell him something?.
His body discovered in a large sewage tunnel, half naked and with a bullet in his back.
It is on one of these endless grey days that a man - a Mr Giuglu Nicotra - is found dead.
