THE ANTICIPATIONS OF THE FIRST EPISODE

In the woods of Val Resia, the body of the young policewoman Marta Trevisan is found, apparently dead by suicide with a gunshot to the heart. Commissioner Teresa Battaglia, thanks to her infallible intuition, discovers that it is actually a murder. Teresa and her trusted inspectors Giacomo Parisi and Massimo Marini scrutinize Marta’s life and discover that the policewoman had come into possession of the “Sleeping Nymph”, a mysterious painting dated 1945 and painted with human blood. However, Albert Lona, the new manager with whom Teresa has a score to settle, arrives to hinder Teresa. Meanwhile, Teresa discovers that the blood on the “Sleeping Nymph” belongs to a Resian woman. Marini and Parisi then go with Teresa to Val Resia to investigate. There they meet Krisnja, great-granddaughter of the girl portrayed in the painting and daughter of Hanna, lover of Marta’s late father who mysteriously disappeared years before. Teresa discovers that it was Emmanuel Turan, the village’s old fool, who gave the painting to Marta, while Marini learns that at the crime scene there was not only Sandro, a young climbing instructor, but also Diego, a troubled boy who swears he saw a monster among the trees. Returning to Udine, Marini finds Elena, his ex, waiting for him: she is expecting a child.
