Sinopse

A newlywed couple buys a second-hand apartment. In the storage room there are belongings of the owner, who died ten years ago, and the intermediary of the sale (a friend of the current owner) tells them that once they buy the apartment, they can get rid of those effects. Before closing the deal, she gives them a succulent discount with only one condition: they will have to keep the trunk with three locks that is in the storage room until the owner (who lives in a nursing home) dies.

    It's mid-Winter in the Cornish seaside town of St Foy. In the midst of a family birthday party Emily Duggan, missing for three years and presumed dead after murdering her best friend Star Bright, arrives unannounced. To the bewilderment and shock of her family, Emily insists she didn't do it and has an alibi, but refuses to answer any questions. 
     
    Led by Belle Harrington, the Curiosity Club, including Emily's aunt Bette, start their own investigation to find the real culprit, as the police re-open the unsolved mystery of Star Bright's murder. 
     
    As the case progresses, old, uncomfortable secrets re-surface. Who was the real Star Bright? Could finding the truth about her past reveal her killer? If her killer wasn't Emily, could it have been one of the four students with whom Emily and Star shared accommodation at the eerie, now abandoned house on the Moor nicknamed 'Bedlam Heights.' Or was it another family member? Or someone from Star's bizarre past? 
     
    Belle and the Curiosity Club pose these and many more uncomfortable questions, as certain residents of the town become quietly but increasingly determined the case will never be solved.

    Sicily, 1980s: When she was just eight years old, Tina watched as her father, a member of Cosa Nostra, was murdered in cold blood. Now a teenager, she terrorizes her hometown of Gela, having made it her mission to join the mafia, an  
    organization traditionally forbidden to women as made members. Nicknamed ’a masculidda, or “the tomboy,” Tina has taken charge of her own gang, and is notorious for her cruelty and reckless disregard for societal expectations. 
     
    When a news article is published about Tina’s latest crimes, a teacher living in Rome feels compelled to write a novel about her—even though it means returning to her native Sicily to gather material. She and Tina circle around each  
    other in a dangerous dance of obsession and violence until their first, and last, explosive meeting. 
     
    This groundbreaking exploration of gender identity and clear-eyed presentation of an unseen side of the mafia is a landmark literary achievement by one of Italy’s feminist icons.
