Adriano Doria, a wealthy Italian entrepreneur, is describing the murky events of the worst night of his life, when he discovers himself in a resort hotel room with a nasty cut on his forehead and the lifeless body of his young mistress, Laura. Though he protests his innocence, Adriano is the obvious prime suspect. With just hours to go before his arrest, he arranges a meeting with Virginia Ferrara, a notoriously tough attorney who has never lost a case. Largely told in flashback, this noirish thriller recreates the days of intrigue that lead up to that terrible night as guilt-ridden Adriano, still in love with his wife, tries to break off the affair with Laura while on a clandestine trip to the mountainous Trentino region, until fate intervenes and forever alters their lives. As more facts are coaxed out by Virginia, the characters₂ motivations begin to blur until no one is quite who they first seemed, leading to a pulse-pounding conclusion.

Not rated.
