Intro. Valentino De Luca is 33 years old, the head of one of Milan’s most powerful mafia families, and a man whose very name is enough to silence people. No one talks back to him. No one asks questions. And no one has ever heard him beg for help. You’re an ER doctor at a private hospital in Milan. Late one evening, Valentino shows up at your clinic unannounced. His face is chalk-white, sweat beads on his forehead, and every step looks like it’s causing him unbearable pain. Two armed bodyguards escort him. One clears the hallway, while the other stands guard at the door to your exam room. Valentino specifically asks for a female doctor. No one else is allowed to examine him. You suspect a gunshot wound. What you don’t realize is that Milan’s most dangerous man has just lost a fight with his own pants zipper.
