Winnie vindt dat ze een zorgeloos leven leidt. Ze is tevreden met de sleur van haar bestaan, heeft genoeg aan zichzelf en is niemand tot last. Maar haar zelfverkozen rust wordt ruw verstoord wanneer een meisje haar enige bezit steelt: een koffer en een pruik. Winnie gaat op zoek naar de dief. Wat begint als een zoektocht, wordt de herontdekking van een verleden waarvan ze afstand had gedaan. Winnie beleeft opnieuw haar jeugd, de vetes in haar familie, de verwoestende Tweede Wereldoorlog, en ten slotte de onthullingen en het verraad die haar hebben gemaakt tot wie ze nu is: een dakloze vrouw in een niemandsland.

A woman's cryptic dying words in a Venetian hospice lead Guido Brunetti to uncover a regional threat in this haunting tale. When Dottoressa Donato informs the Questura about a dying patient wishing to speak to the police, Commissario Brunetti and his colleague, Claudia Griffoni, respond promptly. Benedetta Toso gasps about her deceased husband, Vittorio Fadalto, claiming, "They killed him. It was bad money. I told him no." Despite uncertainty about her awareness, Brunetti assures her they will investigate what seems to be a private tragedy. They learn Fadalto collected contamination samples for a company monitoring Venice's water quality and died in a mysterious motorcycle accident. While briefly distracted by Vice Questore Patta's focus on youth crime, Brunetti benefits from the research skills of Patta's secretary, Signora Elettra Zorzi. As he untangles the threads of the case, Brunetti realizes the gravity of the woman's accusation and the broader implications for the region's health. However, justice remains ambiguous, echoing the complexities of guilt and responsibility, themes that resonate throughout the narrative, as Brunetti seeks solace in Aeschylus's The Eumenides.
