Summary: Udine, Italy: A decades-old murder investigation has landed on Superintendent Teresa Battaglia's desk. DNA analysis has revealed that a painting from the final days of World War II contains tissue from a human heart. Teresa is able to trace the evidence to Val Resia, one of Italy's most isolated, untouched regions. When Teresa's investigation hits too close to the truth, a fresh human heart is hung at the valley's entrance, a clear warning. As she hunts the ruthless killer, Teresa, who is out of shape, diabetic, and fighting the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, must face down her own deteriorating abilities, as well as someone she hoped to never see again--a man who has just become her supervisor.
