La estación

Milan, April 2003. Riccardo Mezzanotte is a young police inspector who has just joined the Central Station Railway Police Section. He has an innate propensity for getting into trouble and begins to investigate a case that seems to interest no one: someone is spreading horribly mutilated animal carcasses around the station. Laura Cordero is a young woman of twenty, beautiful and from a good family, who hides a secret. She usually calls it "the gift" but she considers it more like a curse that she can't talk about. She works as a volunteer in a center for the marginalized that is located in the Central Station and also tries to solve a mystery: she wants to find two children whom she has seen several times wandering around the station at sunset, alone. The station, powerful as a fortress, solemn as a mausoleum, enigmatic as an Egyptian pyramid, seems to house many more mysteries: between the painful folds of its history, behind its sumptuous columns and, above all, in its underground labyrinths, much of it in disused, where normally not even the police dare to venture, the destinies of Riccardo and Laura will cross and together they will find the resolution to the mysteries that they both try to solve.
