After the Arcangelo affair, the Pasti brothers, together with an eccentric half-sister they didn't know they had, have made a name for themselves as "gravediggers of VIPs" and are vying for a coveted category award never won before, the Vespillone D'oro. But the evaluation commission finds a gigantic hole in the company's books, which threatens to exclude them from the race for the award. But how is this possible? The answer is in Matteo Pasti's confession: he "borrowed" large sums from company accounts to maintain a virtual relationship with the cam girl named Bella Salma. A stage name that, soon, is on the opening news of all the news: the sex worker is found dead in her villa due to an unlikely domestic accident. The Pasti phone is not long in ringing...
