For Detective Maurizio Scala, the case is as puzzling as it is personal. With a reputation for relentless determination and a sharp mind that misses nothing, Scala has built his career solving crimes others would deem unsolvable. But this time, the grim details will raise the darkest demon from Scala’s soul.The villa’s sophisticated security system never faltered, and the suspects’ alibis are as airtight as the high walls surrounding the scene. As Scala digs deeper, shadows of failures and doubts haunt him and the relentless ticking of a clock echoing his fear: could this be the case that finally breaks him?
When a second murder disrupts his fragile momentum, Scala must confront not only the secrets buried within the ancient walls of the villa but also the darkness within himself.
For Detective Scala, this isn’t just another case—it’s a test of his very identity. Will he uncover the truth before time runs out, or will this be the first case that the stubborn Detective Scala and his team fail to solve?
