Items related to The Hit: 3 (Leone Scamarcio, 3)
The investigation of a hit-and-run in Rome leads Detective Leone Scamarcio on a deadly journey to confront his Mafia past.
When Leone Scamarcio is called to investigate an apparent hit-and-run, it seems like a job for a traffic officer, not one of Rome's top detectives.
But when the victims are kidnapped on their way to the hospital, and Scamarcio discovers that they are the family of one of the country's top television executives, the infamous Micky Proietti, things start to get interesting. Everyone, it seems from Premier League footballers to jilted starlets and even the Calabrian Mafia has an axe to grind with Proietti.
As Scamarcio delves into the underbelly of Italian show business, he discovers a possible connection between this investigation and his own Mafia father's right-hand man. To solve the case he must travel home to Calabria, but can he finally banish the ghosts of the past?
