Depuis quelques mois, des gangs d'adolescents sévissent dans les rues de Venise. Tandis que le commissaire Brunetti et sa collègue, Claudia Griffoni, enquêtent sur ce phénomène inquiétant, ils découvrent que ces garçons viennent tous de familles influentes dans les sphères politiques, juridiques et économiques de la ville.

К комиссару Гвидо Брунетти обращаются за помощью коллеги из карабинерии, расследующие убийство владельца небольшой транспортной компании. Но они явно темнят и чего-то не договаривают, вынуждая Брунетти в очередной раз прибегать к услугам очаровательной Элеттры - секретарши его непосредственного начальника, владеющей хакерскими приемами. Искать разгадку преступления особенно нелегко, потому что внимание комиссара без конца отвлекает таинственная Франка Маринелло.

En menant l’enquête, le commissaire découvre avec stupeur que le défunt avait une fascination malsaine pour les années de plomb en Italie.

Quand le commissaire Brunetti reçoit une collègue de sa femme inquiète pour son fils Alessandro qui se drogue, ce sont le père de famille et le policier qui se mobilisent aussitôt en lui.

Cependant, informations contradictoires et même mensonges le déroutent.
