Premise

[edit]

Rocco Schiavone is a widowed detective superintendent who has recently been transferred from his beloved Rome to Aosta in the Italian Alps for disciplinary reasons. While hating his new posting, Schiavone investigates crimes that disrupt the peaceful Aosta Valley, although he sometimes resorts to questionable methods when doing so. His wife, who died almost ten years ago, is always present in his mind. He often sees her in other women and when he is home alone, he takes comfort in hearing her sound advice regarding various cases and the ethical issues they may pose.
