While answering a distraught call from her friend Sitara, Sita, detective Lalli’sniece, discovers a body in an empty flat-a hulking salesman with his headbashed in. However, more than the crime, Sita finds herself distracted by aprint of Raphael’s Sistine Madonna, which hangs in the living room.Why is the iconic Renaissance painting in a single colour? And what is itsconnection with the corpse on the living room floor?The Madonna seems hardly relevant to the police in their hunt for themurderer. But Lalli, the last resort for unsolvable crimes, thinks otherwise.
