Plot

Laura Monti witnesses firsthand, through the killer's eyes, a series of murders that share common elements: the same weapon, the same type of victim, and the same execution ritual involving lipstick and water. Furthermore, all victims have a connection with wealthy gynecologist Ernesto Longhi. Laura is distraught and unable to cope with this traumatic experience, because in addition to experiencing the crimes firsthand, she is also personally involved. It will be discovered that she was adopted and that she has a twin sister with serious mental health issues. Her adoptive parents rejected her because they feared raising a troubled girl, who will ultimately prove to be responsible for the crimes and who, thanks to facial plastic surgery, will become Laura's unexpected best friend.[4][5]
