On their way to work, two men discover the body of a young soldier hanging from the beams of an abandoned wine cellar. His feet were touching the ground, his own belt wrapped around his neck. Inspector Lukas, alias Gramps, is called upon to investigate the “suicide”. Although the army quickly halted the investigation ruling it a case of suicide, Gramps determines that this was indeed a murder committed by person or persons unknown. Finding only a discarded cigarette butt, a button and a freshly excavated cavity at the scene, he goes on a wild rollercoaster ride following several very promising leads. But the murderer seems to evade him, in fact mocking him, taunting him. What was the motive for this heinous crime? Was the belt tied around the unfortunate young man’s neck by a jealous husband, an abandoned lover, or does it go deeper than that - all the way to the bowels of an old Roman villa? It is up to Gramps to trap the murderer into making the one and only mistake that would lead to his capture. A spellbinding tale based upon a true story.
