Commissario Guido Brunetti is asked by a wealthy aristocrat and friend of his mother-in-law, the Contessa, to investigate a fifteen year old crime. The woman is the grandmother of a young woman who was attacked and thrown into a canal while a young teen. The girl was rescued from drowning by a local drunk but not before she suffered serious brain damage from lack of oxygen. The man was too drunk to remember anything when questioned the next day. The crime was never solved and the grandmother wants closure even though the girl's mother is uninterested. With the assistance of Commissario Claudia Griffoni who befriends the girl through their shared love of horses, they managed to track down the man who assaulted her.
