Police Comissioner Datti is investigating the murder of a female doctor whose murderer seems to be a thirty-fivish year old man. Soon another murder follows: Pianist Robert Dominici's girlfriend is found killed.

A darkly atmospheric giallo that drips with dread. Its unsettling mood and suspenseful pacing make for a chilling, if sometimes grim, viewing experience. Perfect for those who enjoy a stylish, European-tinged slasher.
