"Maybe this has been my attempt during the last five years. To let me live without making mistakes. To not decide so I won't make mistakes. To be a dead fish and follow the current. Because it's easier to give up yourself and your own identity instead of fighting for yourself and to not change your life."Trapped in a life that no longer has sounds or an identity: an accident on the job has taken away his hearing and his memory, forcing him to get out of his business. Since then, for Pietro Ferri, ex-cop, the days flow in a monotonous routine, divided only by clandestine sex with Roberta and nightmares; atrocious nightmares, recurring, in which he is the truculent protagonist. Up until the "killer of Ghisolfa", who had caused his accident, reappears on the scene with a series of murders that seem to represent a clear call for Pietro, an invitation to get back into the game, to take up his old identity. And a little is enough for the door to his memories to arrogantly open wide, bringing back to his mind truths that maybe would have been better to continue to ignore... Because at times, the certainty of nothingness is better than a possible joy.An intense thriller, in which the real monster to flush out is the one that lies deep inside our selves.
