Set in a tired Rome, where a corrupt and silent power rules, Inspector Alfieri is warned by ministry officials of a dangerous digital archive that could shatter the delicate balance between crime, business, and politics. Shortly after, at an exclusive nightlife club, a lawyer is found poisoned. Elena, a woman living on the margins of this world, discovers the body. Controlling her panic, she hides a USB flash drive the victim gave her just before dying and escapes into the night. Alfieri assigns the case to his trusted investigator, Rocky Giraldi. Foul-mouthed, sarcastic, and seemingly out of place, Rocky possesses a deeply righteous soul. Despite his rough exterior, he is determined to ensure justice prevails at any cost.
