Quick overview 'The Sleeping Nymph': a work of art of magnetic beauty, painted by a young partisan fighter during the last days of the Second World War.

Only that faint trace of blood. And that's what leads commissioner Teresa Battaglia - herself hiding an unspeakable truth - to the Resia Valley, in the north eastern part of Italy: a perfect genetic enclave protected for centuries from the outside world.

The valley and the portrait are the only clues for a murder that occurred more than 70 years before.

A red thread leading to the shadow of someone hell-bent on protecting a sacred secret.

Before Brian - her childhood best friend, business partner, and finally her husband - dropped a 'bombshell' on her in the form of her stunning new replacement. Which means Grace now has - nothing.
