Two of four commissions for Nibo's (ao3) modern aegond fic.

Cannot post the third because Tumblr won't like it 🥴 and there isn't a four without a three, so two it is!

Detective Montalbano is an Italian television series based on the detective novels of Andrea Camilleri.

The plot

Salvo Montalbano, the police chief inspector of Vigàta, is a gruff character who is responsible and serious at work, but often also open and friendly with people he knows he can trust. Montalbano finds he must investigate various criminal acts in his area, for which—thanks to his great intelligence and the help of numerous assistants, even outside the police—he always manages to reconstruct the exact events and to find a solution. Among his colleagues are his deputy, Mimi Augello, Inspector Giuseppe Fazio, the awkward policeman Agatino Catarella, and other officers of the police station. Otherwise, among his external collaborators are his friend Ingrid Sjostrom, the journalist Niccolò Zito and, more rarely, Adelina, his cook. In his private life, Salvo carries on a long-distance relationship with Livia Burlando, with whom he has a sometimes tempestuous relationship but in which love always prevails. (wikipedia)

The tv show is set in Sicily and the characters speak Italian (with a strong Sicilian accent) and Sicilian. 

Not only you will learn many Sicilian words and expressions, you will also see what a typical Sicilian town looks like. 

LONG STORY SHORT

I think this is the best way for you to practise and to learn about Sicily more.
