‘Hero’ Inspector Fabio Montale, has a fondness for the company of
women, loves chilled Cassis and Thelonius Monk, Lagavulin and Joseph
Conrad. Working mainly in the high-rise suburbs of Marseilles, he’s
sometimes conscious that “"it was easier to be a policeman than a
criminal”" and is continually aware, like his creator, of the local
political realities that will always leave him at the sharp end of the
stick.
