Palermo. Un'estate caldissima. E tre poliziotti che più diversi non si potrebbe: il questore Lobianco, severo e forte, Rosario D'Alessandro detto Sasà - amante del cibo e delle donne, affetto da un curioso disturbo della lacrimazione che fa sì che pianga quando si eccita - e Marò Pajno, affascinante e volitiva, relegata in un noioso commissariato di quartiere. I tre sono uniti sin dai primi anni di servizio da un'amicizia più forte di tutto. Tanto che Marò, attratta da entrambi, ha finito per non concedersi a nessuno dei due.

I poveri si muovono nei bassi come fantasmi nella polvere, i più abbienti hanno già lasciato i quartieri alti per le loro ville al mare.

Mi chiamo Atena Ferraris e mi sa che non sono come gli altri, inutile girarci intorno. Mia madre mi ha sempre detto che siamo tutti diversi, e quindi è come se fossimo tutti uguali. Non ne sono convinta, ma mi fido di lei. Ho trent'anni, vesto fuori moda e odio le sorprese. E ho ben ventisette sveglie ogni giorno per ricordarmi di lavorare, di mangiare, di andare a letto, di smettere di pensare. Soprattutto faccio troppe domande, dicono. Perché per me è essenziale che ogni cosa abbia una spiegazione.

Being a nanny for three girls who belong to a grumpy boxing legend was not on my list of plans when I followed my brother to Macon, Oregon. I went from ruling the boardroom to baking cupcakes in the blink of an eye.
