Please note: with respect to the text from which it is taken, Camilleri has corrected the small error he had stumbled upon, causing the blind man to die with the vapors of an LPG gas cylinder; this is in fact flammable, but not toxic. The "scientific" truth was re-established following a report from the Fire Brigade

The commissioner investigates the death of Enea Silvio Piccolomini, a blind man who died from the administration of an excessive dose of the medicine he was taking. The story has unexpected implications. With his Livia and Orlando, Piccolomini's big Newfoundland dog, Montalbano goes to the island of Levanzo officially to enjoy a couple of days off, actually to talk to Piccolomini's sister who runs an inn there, and the vacation it soon becomes the opportunity to further research. He will discover that the charity for the elderly and disabled that looked after the Piccolomini was just a cover for the clandestine transport of drugs, cleverly hidden in the walking stick that the old man carried, and that the dog Orlando had been systematically trained to attack the drug dogs and let the master pass unscathed.
