Tutti i particolari in cronaca
The dawn rush, breakfast at the café, then nine hours of work at the court archive, a dinner full of silences, and the lights out at ten o'clock: Carlo Cappai is the embodiment of methodicalness, of loneliness. Of ordinariness. No one suspects that in his eyes that maze of boxes, files and folders is not dead paper at all. Quite the opposite: those folders speak, sometimes shouting their unheard truth, their demand for justice. They are the cases in which, in fact, the courts have failed, and the guilty have been acquitted "for not having committed the act" - in reality for the usual, petty complications of power. Cappai simply takes Justice where the Law has failed - always waiting, now forty years, to punish a guilt that has scarred his life. Walter Andretti, on the other hand, is a journalist plunged from Sports, where he was fine, to the News, where he is miserable. When the boss dumps coverage of two recent murders on him, Andretti despite himself investigates, and after initial awkwardness and missteps begins to sense that there is something strange in those deaths. A connection. Perhaps the same hand... Antonio Manzini, the creator of the unforgettable vicequestore Schiavone, enters the Giallo Mondadori catalog with a tight and surprising story that questions the balance between law and justice, and what we would be willing to do to heal our wounds.
