Italian Crime With Vintage Style.
Crime on the Tuscan sea-side investigated by a gorgeous cop, and a cynical
bar-owner. The key to the series is the fabulous cast of old Italian men who
just nag out at Bar Lume – giving wisdom as they see fit. A sight that all
inner-city Australians know well!
Murders at Bar Lume is a charming new series by the creators of Inspector
Montalbano. Adapted from the novels by Marco Malvadi, the story takes place in
Pineta, a beautiful seaside Tuscan village. The warm, witty stories involve
crime, detection, and a Greek chorus of wise old men who sit outside the Bar
Lume and give their opinions to anyone who will listen. Smart Italian crime
fiction from the master of the genre. Stars Filippo Timi, Alessandro
Benvuti.
