She’s comfortable balancing on the edge of legality to make a good arrest until one night an informant tells her that a cop has stepped over the line and is selling rock cocaine. In Josie’s mind, there’s nothing worse than dirty cops. She learns the hard way that they can be vicious, clever, and determined to do anything - including murder - to avoid capture.

Riviera Ligure di Ponente. Meta turistica di lombardi e piemontesi. Uno di quei posti dove non dovrebbe succedere mai niente. Scompare un insegnante del liceo. Cose che capitano. Ma dopo poco una studentessa di quello stesso liceo viene trovata morta assassinata. Chi conduce le indagini è il commissario di Alassio, Bartolomeo Rebaudengo, un cuneese d'Alta Langa timido, belloccio, che nasconde dietro i modi introversi un carattere d'acciaio. Il suo impegno è condiviso da una squadra di uomini e donne capaci, ma soprattutto uniti dalla stima verso di lui.

È autunno, momento magico di silenzi, di foglie dorate e di funghi e il commissario Bartolomeo Rebaudengo passeggia nei boschi di Ceva. Ma la tranquillità dura poco, subito funestata da un delitto atroce, quasi un rituale che rimanda a un fatto di cronaca nera vecchio di dieci anni. Lo scenario è una bella villa sulla collina di Alassio, tra palme, eucalipti e profumo di mareggiate invernali. Nel frattempo gli uomini del commissariato indagano anche su una vicenda poco chiara che si svolge all'interno di una sfarzosa galleria d'arte e antiquariato appena inaugurata.

Ad Albenga, nell'arco di poche settimane, si susseguono dei fatti alquanto stravaganti: un noto avvocato dà i numeri, si spoglia per strada e si mette a correre forsennatamente per il centro storico, un prestigioso medico si spara nella solitudine dell'entroterra, il titolare di una rinomata gelateria scompare nel nulla. E, come se non bastasse, sulla sonnolenta atmosfera autunnale della cittadina di provincia si abbatte un crimine efferato: viene scoperto un cadavere intrappolato tra i rami di un albero, probabilmente trascinato dalla corrente del fiume durante l'ultima piena.

Tempi duri per la dottoressa Ardelia Spinola. Sta rimuginando sul rapporto un po' troppo intimo tra i suoi carissimi amici, il commissario in pensione Bartolomeo Rebaudengo e la pianista Norma Picolit, quando riceve una strana telefonata dal suo ex fidanzato Arturo. Strana perché ha come la sensazione che lui taccia il vero motivo della chiamata. Passano pochi giorni e Ardelia è sul luogo di un crimine per esaminare un cadavere, ma il corpo che viene ripescato con un proiettile nel torace dalla piscina della villa di Davide Drusi, imprenditore ligure, è quello di Arturo.

Il commissario Bartolomeo Rebaudengo e il medico legale Ardelia Spinola sono un pilastro l'uno per l'altra: tra alti e bassi, una storia d'amore e un'amicizia scoppiettante, hanno sempre condiviso ogni difficoltà che la vita li ha costretti ad affrontare. A innescare il vizioso circolo degli eventi, questa volta, è il rinvenimento del corpo di una ragazza nel vano di un pick-up di un malcapitato idraulico a un posto di blocco nell'entroterra ligure.
