Every August, Florence shimmers in the summer heat. But this year
the heatwave is fiercer than usual, and the city's inhabitants have
fled to the cool of the hills. So it is no surprise that amidst the
shrubbery of a normally busy roundabout, a corpse lies unnoticed,
bloating in the humid air. Sandro Cellini will not be joining the
crowds of holidaymakers this year. The former policeman turned
private detective has a case: a man who seems to have vanished into
thin air - leaving his pregnant young wife alone in the city.
Meanwhile, bankteller Roxana Delfino is also stuck in the city for
the season, with nothing to do but worry for her aging mother and
puzzle over the disappearance of one her regular clients. As all
Florence sweats it out, Cellini attempts to grapple with his case
and the complications it throws up. And when the weather finally
breaks, it brings with it a shocking revelation...
