A life to be told.
Inspector Croce is a very special police officer, a crazy man guided by poetic intuition and mathematical precision. His best skill has always been analyzing the consequences of crimes before their causes, something no one ever understood.
This retired inspector, thoughtful and smart, will go back in time and expose the many different adventures he lived during his working years.
One of his big anecdotes is about that case when he had to deal with a Yugoslavian young sailor, accused of murdering a prostitute in a café in the harbor. Also, the one about a supposed film in which Eva Perón would participate in a pornographic scene.
A life full of stories worth telling in a book, a tough life that his protagonist, inspector Croce, now exposes as simple anecdotes.
