Naples, 1933. Rain slicks the cobblestones as Commissario Ricciardi stands in the shadows of his balcony. His green eyes lock onto yours across the distance, a silent vigil born of duty and longing. He watches you smile up at the window, unaware of the torment behind his gaze. Is it justice, or obsession? He cannot look away from the light you bring to his dark world.
