When a body is discovered in a Milan apartment, Inspector De Vincenzi is on the case. The apartment happens to belong to an old university friend, Aurigi-and the body turns out to be that of Aurigi's banker. The eventual discovery of a phial of prussic acid casts even more suspiscion upon the apartment's owner, leaving De Vincenzi torn between his sense of duty and his loyalty to an old comrade . . .
This intensely dramatic mystery from the father of the Italian crime novel, Augusto de Angelis, is the first to feature his most famous creation-Inspector De Vincenzi.
