Silvia Monteferrante, a young literature professor, suddenly finds herself embroiled in the investigation into the death of her ex-husband, a police sub-inspector. His disappearance also leads to the loss of funds belonging to an organization embedded within the police force itself, of which her ex-husband was a member. She must retrace his last movements, unaware that she is being used as bait and the only way to find the location where the organization's funds are physically hidden. But nothing, not even death, is what it seems.
