Detective Montalbano
investigates the murder of a man
called Lapecora, the owner of an
import-export company. His
widow suspects that her husband
was killed by his lover Karima, a
young Tunisian woman who
mysteriously disappeared the
very day of the murder.
Montalbano manages to track
down the woman’s son, François,
who had been hiding, terrified in
the streets of the neighbourhood.
As the detective investigates and
the mystery becomes darker and
more complex, what will happen
to little François?
Accidentally, Detective
Montalbano finds the naked
corpse of a young woman in a
villa outside the village.
Montalbano starts investigating
and finds out that the woman,
Michela Licalzi, had recently
bought the villa and come to
Sicily from Bologna to restore it.
Unfortunately the case is taken
away from Montalbano and
precious time will be lost while
the Detective tries to get his case
back.
Luparello, a leading politician,
dies in the arms of the daughter
of a political rival while making
love to her. It seems pretty
straightforward, but Montalbano
discovers that it was all staged by
Rizzo, another political opponent,
who didn't count on Giorgio,
Luparello's young lover, in whose
arms the politician had actually
passed away.
An informer reveals to
Montalbano the existence of an
arms cache in a cave outside of
town. In the cave, in addition to
the load of weapons, the police
find two bodies in a secret
chamber buried seemingly
according to an obscure ritual.
Montalbano is curious about the
find, but first has to deal with the
issue of arms smuggling unveiled
by the informer’s revelation.
Severely injured after an ambush
set up by the Mafia to prevent
him from proceeding with the
inquiry, he will spend most of his
convalescence trying to solve the
mystery of the bodies in the cave.

Detective Montalbano is faced
with a double mystery: the
murder of Nenè Sanfilippo, a
freelance informatics expert, and
the disappearance of Mr. and
Mrs. Griffo, an elderly couple last
seen during an excursion to
Tindari. Montalbano suspects
that Sanfilippo’s affair with Vania
Titulesco, the Rumanian wife of
noted transplant surgeon
Eugenio Isgrò, has something to
do with his death. Then, when
the charred bodies of the Griffos
are found, the detective discovers
that the elderly couple had been
renting a farmhouse to
Sanfilippo, who supposedly used
it to meet with his lover.
Goldsmith Alberto Larussa would
appear to have committed
suicide by turning his wheelchair
into an electric chair. But then
detective Montalbano discovers
that the dead man’s will, which
leaves everything to his brother
Giacomo, has been forged.
Giacomo is arrested. But then
after further research,
Montalbano learns that years
earlier, during a fight over Emma
Morpurgo, a girl they had both
fallen in love with, Giacomo had
pushed Roberto down a stairway,
leaving him paralysed. To avenge
this, Alberto had staged his death
in order to make it look like the
murderer was his brother.
The apparently accidental death
of a blind man leads Montalbano
to an island off the coast of Sicily
where the passing of a local
fisherman leads to the discovery
that he and the blind man had
each deposited huge sums of
money in their respective bank
accounts.
When Mr. Pagnozzi, chairman of a
public works company, and his
young wife Stefania are found
dead in their car in a gully, the
immediate conclusion is an
accident. However, the fact that
the woman’s nails are broken
causes Montalbano to suspect
that things are not that simple
and that the couple was in fact
murdered. The investigation,
initially focused on some
Albanian immigrants, gradually
reveals the secrets in Pagnozzi’s
past and how these secrets
returned to haunt him and his
young unfaithful wife.

The financial wizard Emanuele
Gargano has disappeared with
the savings entrusted to him by
the people of Montelusa. Where
is he now? Basking on some
distant island or feeding the
fishes, punished by an irate
Mafioso? Montalbano’s
investigation brings him into
contact with Maria Stella
Cosentino, Gargano’s loyal
assistant, and the beautiful
Michela Manganaro, another
employee who tells him that
Gargano was gay and involved
with the third employee Giacomo
Pellegrino.
A series of mysterious muggings
takes place in Vigata, end in
tragedy when one of the victims
is killed. Meanwhile, a man
virtually destroys the emergency
room of the local hospital upon
discovering that his daughter is
pregnant. A local gynaecologist
has also gone missing and could
possibly be dead. When he finds
out that the missing doctor is
responsible for the unwanted
pregnancy, Montalbano starts to
discover the link between these
incidents and so brings each case
to its occasionally surprising
conclusion
Montalbano's most difficult case
begins during one of his morning
swims, when he finds a badly
decomposed body floating in the
water. While consulting a
fisherman on what might have
happened, the detective spots a
group of illegal immigrants being
escorted ashore...
The murder of Angelo
Bonpensiero would appear to be
the start of a mafia war.
Montalbano has his doubts. He is
then taken off the case and
assigned to investigate the
disappearance of a young
Ukrainian woman, seemingly
unrelated to the previous case he
will find out that he should have
trusted his instinct after all...

The kidnapping of Susanna
Mistretta puzzles Montalbano.
Her family, once wealthy, has
fallen on hard times. Only her
uncle, Antonio Peruzzo, a
successful local businessman
hoping to enter politics, could
possibly pay the large ransom.
Digging deeper into the family's
affairs Montalbano realizes that
Peruzzo was the cause of the
family's financial ruin and that
Susanna is not really in danger
after all...
The death of a local construction
tycoon Girolamo Cascio leads
Montalbano back to the murder
of Cascio's leading competitor,
Giacomo Alletto, who was shot
and killed two decades earlier, a
crime pinned on the man's
business partner, Rocco Pennisi
who was sent to jail. Lead as ever
by his infallible gut feeling,
Montalbano unearths a twentyyear-old conspiracy..
Well-to-do womanizer Angelo
Pardo is killed in what has to be a
crime of passion. But
Montalbano, refusing to trust
appearances, carries out the
investigation his way, digging
into the victim’s past and talking
with anyone remotely involved in
the case, including a number of
politicians who start dying like
flies because of a badly cut
cocaine shipment. In the end
Montalbano faces the toughest
challenge of his career:
investigating the female psyche
in order to solve the crime.
A badly injured horse dies on the
beach in front of Montalbano’s
house. The investigation opened
by the Chief detective brings him
into contact with elegant races
organized by local nobles, as well
as the secret contests held by the
mafia for illegal betting.
Montalbano even meets a
beautiful horsewoman who is a
friend of Ingrid’s. Avoiding the
distractions placed in his way,
Montalbano solves the case with
a crafty strategy, even clearing
the faithful Galluzzo of a murder
charge.

The naked body of a young
woman shot in the face is found
at a dumpsite, on her shoulder
the butterfly tattoo worn by all
the eastern European girls
sheltered at a local church
association. The bishop reacts
badly when Montalbano starts
investigating. The chief of police
wants the bishop kept happy,
Livia wants Montalbano to take
her somewhere where they can
sort things out. Montalbano
solves the case, but his personal
life comes out the worse for wear.
While a guest at the rented beach
house of a fellow officer and his
family, Montalbano discovers the
body of Rina, a young woman
who had disappeared six years
earlier, in a trunk. As he begins
his investigation, Montalbano
falls prey to a burning passion for
the dead woman’s twin sister
Adriana. She helps him search for
the murderer, but, at the same
time, she drives him wild, to the
point where he unwittingly starts
carrying out her plans for
vengeance.
In the ten-year period between
1938 and 1948, from the height
of Italy’s Fascist regime to the
Christian Democrat electoral
victory that marks the end of the
tumultuous postwar period, Chief
Detective De Luca investigates
and solves crimes in the City of
Bologna and along the Adriatic
coast, with little or no regard for
those in power, whoever they
happen to be. His solitary,
uncompromising character and
his magnetic effect on women,
plus the fact that he is simply a
too skilled and too honest a
policeman not to uncover the
truth, all combine to land him in
trouble from time to time.
Lara, a police crime-scene
investigator, moves in with her
Aunt Carina, a former investigator
herself, little knowing that the
man she secretly fell in love with
at the Police Academy, Chief Luca
Manara, has just been transferred
to the same small Tuscan town.
Their renewed acquaintance
starts off on the wrong foot, as
Lara, letting her emotions get the
best of her, slaps Luca at a crime
scene. But throughout the twelve
episodes, during which they
solve crimes with the expert,
warm-hearted aid of Aunt
Caterina, they discover that they
are indeed a perfect match.

It is almost January 6th, Epiphany,
and Rome’s Piazza Navona is
packed with people. It is so
crowded that, for Adriana,
kidnapping little Carletto from his
mother Laura is child’s play.
Laura’s immediate, tearful
reaction is to turn to her
companion, Giangilberto. How is
she to know that Giangilberto
actually organised the
kidnapping? The story begins and
ends in the space of a single day,
on the streets of Rome, where the
lives of bankers and journalists
intersect those of prostitutes and
immigrants from faraway
countries, all in front of the
innocent eyes of Carletto, the
merchandise being exchanged in
this absurd transaction.
“Don’t do like your grandfather.
Shoot!” is the plea repeated over
and over by the mother of Mario
Zonin, who has just arrived in
Naples to report to the
Carabinieri Police barracks where
his grandfather, a courageous
agent with a tender heart, lost his
life years earlier. Mario’s path
crosses that of another young
man, Marco Portosalvo, who has
taken part in a robbery in which a
Carabinieri agent was killed and
is now being hidden by Teresa,
Mario’s neighbour. Outside the
apartment the manhunt for the
robbers continues unabated.
Inside Marco and Teresa bide
their time in a mix of mistrust and
complicity.
At 30 Roberto lives holed up
inside his home, on account of a
severe mental condition.When
his mother dies, he discovers a
black hole in his past: a brother
he never knew existed. Why did
no one ever tell him he had a
brother? And where is the
brother now? Roberto sets off on
a difficult trip to his birthplace:
the Island of Elba. Here he
discovers that his brother was
brutally murdered shortly before
he himself was born. What is
more, the murderer may not yet
have been identified.
As soon as he arrives in Cagliari
from Civitavecchia, Detective
Giacomo Curreli is faced with two
problems: the wary attitude
taken towards him by his fellow
officers at his new posting and a
murder that no one seems to
want to solve. The death of
elderly Mrs. Marcucci is a very
difficult case indeed, though less
on account of the way in which
the crime was committed, than
because of the fact that the
victim was related to the
extremely powerful Mr. Crescioni.

Palermo is warmed by the sun on
the day that Bruno Costa meets
Anna Zanchi and falls madly in
love with her. Bruno works as a
technician for the telephone
company, but he is a bit different
from his fellow workers: he
enjoys books, music and films; he
has his own private, highly
creative world. Anna, a translator
who has settled in Palermo,
opens the door to let him in. He
looks at her and, even before her
telephone line has been repaired,
the chemistry is at work between
the two. They spend two
marvellous days getting to know
each other, trying to find a name
for what has happened to them.
Giulio Campagna is a policeman
with much experience and very
little tact. After an investigation
whose disastrous ending ruined
not only his work on the case, but
his marriage as well, he swears
that he shall never again use
information received from
informers. But life does not
always play fair. There is a drug
shipment for which the contact is
a certain Ortis, an old
acquaintance of Campagna. His
superior obliges him to get back
in touch with the informer.
Samuele was once a famous
comedian. Together with Luca,
his partner under the spotlight,
he was once very popular. Then
Samuele – Sammy for his
admirers – started drinking, and
the audiences stopped laughing.
Caterina, his girlfriend, left him
for Luca, and his life began a
dizzying downward slide. A
number of years have gone by,
and now Samuele – cured of his
drinking – has a small cabaret
nightspot and lots of memories.
Then, one evening, his old friend
Luca is murdered. The prime
suspect is Caterina. For years the
couple has consumed large
quantities of cocaine, and they
were always fighting.
Only four days, but the kind of
days that go by in a flash. Four
characters whose lives mesh
together. Elisa, a young
researcher for a large
pharmaceutical company,
assigned to study a key detail of
the molecule for a new drug. She
has a run in her stocking. Vesna,
once an illegal immigrant and
now the super quick, deadly
assistant of a professional killer.
And the killer himself, who wants
to convince Elisa to manipulate
that very special molecule.
Finally, Marco, ugly as a gorilla,
but a good man. They all have to
act, and act very rapidly.

Jelena, a young woman of Slavic
origin, steals Coliandro’s pistol
while he is trying to arrest her for
theft. Unable to let his fellow
officers or superiors know what
has happened to his weapon,
Coliandro sets off on yet another
personal investigation. In his
search for the pistol, he uncovers
an alliance between the merciless
“Balkans Mafia” and the
Neapolitan Camorra, as well as a
racket involving the recycling of
toxic waste.
A minor murder case would go
unnoticed, were it not for the
escorts, or high-class call girls,
involved. Plus the fact that the
investigation is being
sandbagged from on high.
Though Coliandro is told to work
on other matters, he naturally
begins a counter-investigation of
his own. With the help of
Simona, also an escort, he
uncovers a complex plot that
incriminates deviant portions of
the secret service and
strongholds of economic and
political power.
A group of armed robbers takes
the customers and personnel of a
bank hostage, little knowing that
Inspector Coliandro is using the
bank’s bathroom, or that there
are three even more desperate
criminals - armed with real
weapons and not toy ones like
the robbers – already in the bank,
ready to do whatever it takes to
retrieve important documents
that could send them to prison.
Coliandro, once again leaving his
superiors speechless, foils both
plots, saving the hostages in the
bargain.
A band of gipsies robs the wrong
house. Realizing as much, their
chief Vlad tries to take the loot
back. But, shortly after, he and a
gipsy girl are killed. Another girl,
who Coliandro once let go after
catching her stealing, survives
the attack and runs to the
Inspector for help. Working
alongside Elena, a young social
worker specialized in gipsy affairs,
as well as his fellow officer
“Gambero”, Coliandro uncovers a
dangerous criminal band.

Father Matteo faces a variety of
problems and situations that
prove both troubling and
comical. In the series he
establishes closer relationships
with the other characters such as
Marshal Cecchini of the
Carabinieri, much to the
disappointment of Captain
Anceschi, who is a more formal
military man and cannot stand
Father Matteo’s constant
meddling in police business.
An especially close relatonship is
formed with Marshal Cecchini,
the two joke and engage in gags
in every episode.Still determined
to restore justice wherever he
can, Father Matteo finds himself
caught up, yet again, in assisting
the law in solving criminal cases.
While Father Matteo's friendship
with Marshall Cecchini is
consolidated, his contacts with
the tight-lipped Captain Anceschi
are much more formal, and the
officer is less than enthusiastic
about the Father's constant
presence in the Carabinieri police
station. Despite his disapproval,
the two always end up reaching
the same conclusion in regard to
the difficult cases they encounter.
Don Matteo's adventures
continue. The Gubbio priest,

likeable officer Cecchini still at his
side, as well as faithful Natalina
and Pippo, the Father shows that,
when it comes to choosing
between Good and Evil, only the

various mysteries solved by the
Father.

always, funny Marshall Cecchini,
and a new captain, Giulio

betrayal that will lead most of
them to an untimely and
horrifying death at the hands of a
merciless gang of drug runners.

life of a beautiful woman who
works as a contract killer, packed
with action scenes and suspense,
the plot takes us to Shanghai

Two young women witness the
murder of an antique shop owner
and report it to the police only to
find out that the chief magistrate
in charge of the inquiry is who
they believe was the murderer.
Inspector Luca and his trusted
police dog Turbo are also on the
case determined to dig for the
truth…
Countess Eleonora Modigliani is
found murdered in her villa, from
which jewels have been stolen.
The investigation is assigned to a
young inspector, Luca Sepe,
whose assistant is the faithful
Turbo, a sweet-eyed dog with an
infallible sense of smell.
Everyone's suspicions
immediately focus on Count
Modigliani, the husband who has
an ironclad alibi: at the time of
the crime he was playing golf
with Police Chief Carnevali. But
the case is not closed and a
surprise awaits the
investigators…
When noted gynaecologist and
playboy Giulio Ferroni shoots
himself in his office, Inspector
Luca Sepe is sent to investigate.
Two objects found on the scene
nag at Sepe: a rose from the
garden of Turri Spaccesi, an aging
Mafia boss, and a pair of panty
hose like the ones worn by Silvia,
the Inspector's live-in companion.
Luca visits Spaccesi, who is
worried about an underling
named Ciro. The Inspector looks
up Ciro, who threatens him with
a gun, forcing Luca to kill him.
The shock of the event is partially
alleviated by Silvia's news that
she might be pregnant.
A sinister video game leads to the
death of Chiara, a young girl, as
well as that of a glamorous lady
fortune-teller. The chief suspect is
Tonio, an emotionally unstable
naïf artist. But Turbo, the
invaluable canine sidekick of
Inspector Sepe, considers Tonio a
friend. Sepe becomes so
engrossed in the investigation
that he fails to notice the timid
sentimental ouvertures of
Isabella. As the pieces of the
puzzle come together, he
discovers that Chiara's stepfather
is not a simple Rumanian
immigrant, but a psychiatrist
banned from practising that
profession in his own country on
account of illegal experiments.

A maniac is out to kill the famous
actress Nina Rox, who is in town
for a photo shoot. But first, he
mistakenly murders a friend of
Nina’s named Erica, who
resembles her a great deal. The
case is assigned to Luca, who has
always worshipped the star from
afar, and to Turbo, who saves her
from two more attempts on her
life. The investigation leads to
Nina’s make-up man, Raymond
Pascali, but he is killed by a
mysterious accomplice before he
can be apprehended.
When Lina and Ivo Gennari are
found shot to death and their
son, Maurizio, critically wounded,
ten year-old Carlotta is left
untouched, yet she is left
speechless by the trauma. Only
Turbo seems to be able
understand and comfort her, as
Luca investigates the main
suspects – Piero Roberti, Ivo
Gennari’s dishonest partner, as
well as a group of amusement
park workers – previously
accused by the victim of
burglarizing his home.
Police Inspector Luca Sepe is
investigating a criminal
organisation which smuggles
arms from the war zones of the
Balkans. An initial suspect dies in
a car crash while trying to escape.
But Luca, with the aid of his
assistant Giovanna, traces the
smuggling ring to a San Marino
film-making company that is
being used as a front. Turbo gets
a part in one of their films, whose
leading lady falls in love with
Luca, triggering the jealousy of
her own lover, who is also the
boss of the criminal organisation.
Luca nearly dies in an on-the-set
accident arranged for by the
ringleader.
Massimino, a young child whose
parents are acquainted with
Inspector Luca Sepe, is
kidnapped. Luca's superiors
assign only official police dogs to
the case. But Luca and Turbo,
working on their own, discover
that Massimino is not really his
parents' child.
Instead, he is the son of a
prostitute who had sold the boy
to Antonio Mariani, the false
father. Either the real mother has
taken him back, or her pimp has
kidnapped Massimino to force
the woman to return to the
streets. Turbo, however, fails to
sniff out any "leads" among the
potential suspects.

Marshal Rocca, a widowed father
of three, divides his time
between his family and the
Carabinieri police station he is
commander of, in a small, sleepy
town where everyone seems to
know each other, though evil
lurks beneath the surface. With
years of experience Rocca keeps
it in check, fighting crime and
evildoers while always smiling on
the bright side of life.
After eight episodes and sixteen
million viewers, Marshal Rocca is
back! The usual humane and
modest character walks the
tightrope between thriller and
comedy, with years of experience
to bear, Rocca can rest assured
that crime will not pay in the
small sleepy town where he is
posted.
Marshal Rocca, as always keen to
reconcile his family life with the
difficult situations he encounters
at work, this time will find it a
little harder, not least because of
a certain love interest in Ms.
Margherita who at times is quite
happy to distract him from the
flurry of his everyday activities...
Marshal Rocca, now a widower, is
being courted by a young
elementary school teacher whose
father once served alongside him
in the Carabinieri. All he can offer
the woman though, is a
protective friendship, having
enough on his hands between his
three sons, running the police
station, and his constant run-ins
with the district attorney. Given
his sense of duty and love for the
Truth, Rocca clearly has little
hope of leading the peaceful love
he yearns for.

After recovering from the painful

former Inspector Fogliani, goes
back to work as a private

As usual when Fogliani is on a
case, even an apparently simple
one, the plot naturally thickens
and things are no longer as clear
as they were.

A thriller with modern stories
based on legal research and court
cases. A famous lawyer aided by
his son, decides only to take on
legal cases deemed hopeless. At
the helm of the family law firm,
the father-lawyer sets out the
guiding principles of his practice,
always striving to establish
beyond reasonable doubt the
difference between formal and
genuine truth.
Despite her lengthy experience
and training, Chief Detective Lisa
Milani takes a desk job in a quiet
district outside of Rome, in order
to be with her family. But when
she brilliantly solves a case she
has been asked to help with in
the City, she is given a crime
squad all her own. This means
dealing with serial killers,
reporting to prosecutors and
superiors and even, at grave
personal and professional risk,
handling a period of crisis with
her husband. But through it all,
Lisa never loses her positive
outlook on life or her ability to be
a good mother.
Inspired by the four famous
novels by Valerio Varesi, each film
follows an investigation by
Soneri, Ferrara Police Chief. He
works with a faithful squad on a
series of crimes, each hiding a
disturbing mystery, with the
startling and grotesque
undertones of the apparently
calm world of the wealthy
countryside.
Each of the new season’s six
episodes revolves around a
particularly puzzling crime that
calls into action Inspector Soneri,
head of the investigative squad in
the apparently peaceful, wellheeled Italian city of Ferrara. A
gruff, uncompromising lone wolf,
Soneri leads his equally
individualistic team of detectives
as they resolve cases that bring to
the surface hidden tragedies,
unspoken secrets, unhealed
grudges, wounds and acts of
vengeance that appear all the
more startling in such an idyllic
setting.
