There was a crime a Villa Bornello. The victim, male, around thirty years old, distinct in its gray pinstripe, was found stabbed in the lounge. He was one of the guests at the NYPD dinner, that was held here with us. The year runs 1922 and all the guests are in great shape. Just before sitting down at the table, a scream tears the air. The man lies on his back with a knife in his side. The investigations are entrusted to the Chief Inspector Martina – of which, coincidentally, it is also the birthday
Making his way between ostrich boas, plumes, feathers, Borsalino, cigars and fringed skirts, Martina reaches the body. Searching him finds the first clues; others immediately follow. By pressing those present, he reconstructs the picture and in a few hours solves the case by tracing the evidence with the help of trusted assistants.
Towards evening the twist: while like Nick Carter at the end of the episode he points out the culprit, the skilled inspector is surprised by Carlotta, her most trusted collaborator and organizer of the evening than, kneeling in front of her, he hands her a ring asking her to marry her.
The costume party and the birthday murder were a surprise. But for Martina it was not the only one.
Congratulations to the brides.
