Every small town has village idiots. If you're lucky, there's only one.
(Note: "A Fortunate Man" is a short story. It is also available in the author's 10-story collection, Daggyland #3.)

Every small town has a village idiot. Someone to mock. Someone who becomes the butt of every joke.
In a picturesque mountain village in Italy, where grapes drip on the vine and plump olives rock in the wind, Sbuccio is the one all the locals poke fun at.
But the day is coming when the least among them will lead. Today is that day.
And the wisdom that drops from Sbuccio's lips will shatter souls and change this little town forever.
"A Fortunate Man" marks the first instance that the author's beloved detective, Captain Scarpone, appears in a cameo role in a short story.
