| runtime of  1 h 29 min 39 s will plot a     Mystery      as following |

| The attractive Sandra Durani, studying to be a singer at the
| conservatory of music in the Italian town of Lucca, has a promising
| career in opera ahead of her; until that time, however, she's
| content to give public performances in her native town. On the eve
| of her nineteenth birthday, during a thunderstorm, the young singer
| leaves the apartment she shares with her mother Nicole Venturi, a
| correspondent for a major Roman newspaper. Sandra is on her way to a  |
| secret rendezvous with a married man: Marco Pierboni, a good-looking  |
| industrialist. The latter is killed by gunfire, however, shortly
| before Sandra arrives at the deserted villa outside the town which
| they had chosen as their meeting-point. Nicole has no inkling of her  |
| daughter's affair. She thinks that Sandra has gone to stay the night  |
| with a girlfriend. When Marco's corpse is discovered the next
| morning, ambitious journalist Nicole senses that reporting this
| sensational murder case will make her famous outside her local
| region. The first thing Nicole does is contact her friend
| Superintendent Stefano Avanzo, who has been put on to the case.
| During the course of his investigations the superintendent has
| already called on the family of the murdered man, and has decided
| that the alibis of the various members of the family are shaky to
| say the least. Only Matilde, the mother of the murdered man, is
| above all suspicion. Severa, the family's trusty housekeeper, does
| her best to help Matilde get over the loss of her son, but all her
| efforts are to no avail. Matilde decides to find out the identity of  |
| Marco's murderer via a woman medium. Nicole, ambitious journalist
| that she is, is just as eager to solve the murder mystery. However,
| her initial investigations, which she quietly keeps Superintendent
| Avanzo informed about, come up against a dead end: clever
| discotheque owner Milena Bolzoni, the dead man's "official"
| mistress, has an alibi. That same evening Nicole, who thinks her
| daughter is at the conservatory, is busy making preparations for
| Sandra's birthday. However, when the latter's friend Chiara
| worriedly reveals that Sandra didn't stay with her the previous
| night at all, as she had claimed, but was instead planning to spend
| it with the industrialist who was murdered, the alarm bells start to  |
| go off in Nicole's mind. She contacts Superintendent Avanzo, who
| starts a search operation; it is unsuccessful. Nicole, now in
| desperate straits, draws consolation from the woman medium whom
| Matilde, the dead man's mother, had contacted earlier on. Thanks to
| her special abilities, the medium succeeds in "tracking down" the
| young woman. The magic route leads Nicole close to the mysterious
| villa. There she sees a body lying motionless on a riverbank: it's
| her daughter, Sandra. Aghast at the tragedy that has befallen her,
| Nicole throws her arms around her daughter's dead body. Nicole's
| colleagues in Rome are starting to wonder why they haven't heard
| anything from her, and they send experienced journalist Andrea
| Baresi to Lucca to give them an update on events. He soon finds out
| more details about the two murders from Superintendent Avanzo; the
| two seem to be connected, because both victims were shot with the
| same gun. Nicole's divorced husband Roberto, who left her and their
| daughter years beforehand, turns up at Sandra's funeral. Nicole, in
| a kind of lethargic trance, is hardly aware of her ex-husband's
| presence. A few days later, however, she can't avoid a painful
| confrontation with him about their past. When Roberto leaves,
| Nicole, lonely and utterly distraught, makes a suicide attempt.
| Fortunately it fails. Recovering in hospital, she hears from her
| friend Anna that because of the sensational nature of the murder
| case, her daughter has become the target of several slanderous
| rumours in the press. Now Nicole has an aim in life again: she must
| rescue her dead daughter's reputation. This fills her with new
| strength. She decides to take up the dangerous hunt for Sandra's
| killer all by herself. From her friend Superintendent Avanzo, Nicole  |
| learns the identity of several suspects who could have committed the  |
| crime for reasons of jealousy: Milena, Marco's official mistress;
| his wife, Daniela; or Paolo, Sandra's ex-boyfriend. Meanwhile,
| violence hits the normally peaceful streets of Lucca. Sandra's
| friend Chiara only narrowly avoids a mysterious attempt on her life
| one night. With the aid of a medallion found at the scene of the
| crime, Avanzo gets a lead on who the culprit might be: Professor
| Carlo Mauri, a teacher at the conservatory. It turns out that the
| latter is no murderer, though, simply an inveterate voyeur. By way
| of gratitude for his release, the professor repays the
| superintendent with a very useful piece of information: he used to
| be Sandra's neighbour, and on the night of the murder he saw her ex-  |
| boyfriend Paolo lying in wait for her before her nocturnal
| rendezvous; then they both drove off together. When the
| superintendent arrives, sirens blaring and blue light flashing, at
| Paolo's place, the suspect just manages to escape from his apartment  |
| before the police can arrest him... Nicole learns from Avanzo that
| recent events have led the police to consider Paolo as the prime
| suspect. A short while later she gets a phone call from the young
| man: he protests his innocence and explains that the reason he ran
| away from the police was because he didn't want to be wrongly
| identified as the murderer. Nicole, convinced of Paolo's innocence,
| continues with her investigations alone. She discovers that her own
| friend, Anna, had actually been the person who first introduced
| Sandra to industrialist Marco. Nicole now secretly shadows her
| friend, and catches her making a similar match. She takes Anna to
| task, and discovers that she has been the mistress of Massimo
| Pierboni - the murdered man's brother - for years now, and it was he  |
| who involved her in this lucrative, albeit immoral, business. An
| increasing number of seemingly honest people in the town all start
| to appear dubious. The range of suspects widens more and more.
| Nicole finds out that Milena, the mistress of the murdered
| industrialist, and Martelli, his business partner, have been
| carrying on a fierce blackmail campaign against one another. When
| events come to a murderous head, and Milena is found dead in her
| discotheque, the police arrest Martelli as the main suspect.
| Superintendent Avanzo, however, thinks he knows who Milena's real
| murderer is: the shady Zappi, who was involved in all kinds of
| illicit dealings with the disco manageress. Once again, Nicole
| receives a warning from the superintendent - who quietly sees her as  |
| more than just a friend - about the increasing danger of
| investigating matters on her own. Disregarding this warning, Nicole
| agrees to Paolo's request to meet him at a secret location once he's  |
| told her that he thinks he knows who the real murderer is. She fails  |
| to notice Zappi shadowing her closely. The meeting almost turns into  |
| a hostage drama: Nicole gets grabbed by the killer Zappi, but then
| Paolo comes to her aid unexpectedly and succeeds in overpowering her  |
| assailant. When the police arrive at the scene, Paolo has to make
| his escape yet again before he has a chance to tell Nicole who it is  |
| he suspects. Because of his involvement in Milena's death, Martelli
| is also one of the chief suspects in the spectacular series of
| murders. Nicole, however, doubts very much that he is guilty. And
| rightly so, when it turns out that Daniela, the murdered man's wife,  |
| had been spending the night with Martelli on the evening that the
| murder took place. But at this point the murderer strikes again. One  |
| evening, Nicole is visited by the woman medium, who, distraught,
| begs her to help Paolo: she senses that he's in deadly danger in the  |
| villa where the murder took place. When the police arrive there, her  |
| prophecy turns out to have been absolutely right: Nicole arrives too  |
| late to save Paolo's life. Superintendent Avanzo steps up the search  |
| for the real murderer, and hears from a Florentine art-dealer that
| Massimo, the dead man's brother, had secretly been misappropriating
| valuable paintings from his parents' villa. A few days before
| Marco's murder, the latter had exposed Massimo as a trickster. When
| Avanzo is handed a highly incriminating piece of evidence by Severa,  |
| the family housekeeper, which destroys Massimo's alibi once and for
| all, the superintendent has Massimo placed under arrest for
| suspected murder. Not all is as it seems, however... Nicole's
| instincts tell her that her search isn't over yet. Among Sandra's
| papers she finds a letter, in which she discovers that the
| seventeen-year-old daughter of Severa the family housekeeper died a
| few months previously. The journalist senses that this was kept
| secret for reasons that are anything but harmless. She makes one
| final attempt to unveil the mystery, and follows Severa to the
| village of Braga, where the housekeeper spends her free time with
| her son Michele. There, standing next to her daughter's grave,
| Severa makes an appalling confession: she says that she was the
| person who murdered Marco. It was an act of revenge against the man
| who had seduced her pretty daughter and then turned her into a drug-  |
| addict. Sandra, her daughter's successor, had surprised the
| housekeeper shortly after the murder and so she, too, had to be
| eliminated. As did Paolo, who had begun to suspect her a long time
| ago. Before Severa manages to kill Nicole, who is the only witness
| to this confession, her son Michele intervenes. He knew of his
| mother's crimes, but had kept silent out of love of her. Now he
| realises that it's his responsibility to avoid any further
| bloodshed, and he notifies the police. Finally, Nicole is able to
| close the most horrible chapter of her life. Before she leaves the
| terrible town, she says goodbye with a heavy heart to Superintendent  |
| Avanzo. Who knows what their friendship might have become in some
| other place, at some other, better time...
