Florence, 1967. It is winter, and one year has passed since the historic and devastating flood of the Arno, though the memories of that day still linger with the stains on the city walls. The anniversary of the flood brings with it a new case for Inspector Bordelli, who is weighed down with remorse for having taken justice into his own hands and yearning for Eleonora, the woman he's lost, when the mystery opens. A local wealthy industrialist - fiercely loved and respected by everyone he knew - has been found murdered in his grand villa in the Fiesole hills.

È la primavera del 1967. L'alluvione di novembre, con il suo strascico di tragedie e di detriti, sembra essersi placata e Firenze comincia di nuovo a respirare. Ma non il commissario Bordelli. Per lui non c'è pace dopo un fatto che gli è successo. Indagando sull'omicidio di un ragazzino, si è scontrato con i poteri occulti della massoneria ed è stato costretto alla resa con un "messaggio" molto chiaro: lo stupro di Eleonora, la giovane commessa con cui aveva appena intrecciato una relazione appassionata, e una lista con i nomi di tutte le persone a lui più care.

When his twin brothers are killed playing with an unexploded mortar shell, Salvatore’s faith is destroyed. As the family unravels, and fear ignites among their neighbors that the Vassallo name is cursed, one tragedy begets another.
