Marco Vichi - Inspector Bordelli 04 - Death In Florence - Plot & Excerpts
It was a few minutes before seven. He crushed his cigarette in the ashtray and went out of the door, suppressing the desire to light up another one. He descended the stairs slowly. In the lobby he grabbed an umbrella at random, then went and got into the Beetle. The windscreen wipers were old and left streaks of water on the glass. He wanted to see the butcher again, look him in the eye, exchange a few words … What was he expecting? To read in his eyes that he was the killer? Some ten minutes later he parked in Viale dei Mille. He looked around for the unmarked car with Piras and Tapinassi in it, and when he found it, he nodded vaguely in greeting. He entered the butcher’s shop dripping wet, and Panerai greeted him as he might a favourite customer. At the counter was a girl clutching a large handbag, rather shabbily dressed and with a submissive air about her. Clearly a cleaning woman doing the shopping for her employers. At second glance she turned out to be rather pretty, and the butcher was teasing her with racy quips.
