The story revolves around Sigismondo Deruga, a doctor who finds himself in the midst of a murder trial concerning his ex-wife's death. As the narrative unfolds, it explores themes of justice, morality, and the complexities of human relationships amidst a courtroom setting. The opening of the book introduces readers to a tense courtroom atmosphere filled with spectators buzzing about the case against Dr. Deruga, who is accused of murdering his ex-wife. Initial impressions of Deruga from some characters suggest he might be untrustworthy, implying that his appearance and demeanor do not inspire confidence. The trial centers on the suspicious circumstances of his ex-wife's death due to poisoning and the financial motivations surrounding her substantial inheritance. The narrative presents a variety of opinions and testimonies concerning Deruga, creating a web of intrigue as the characters unravel the clues leading to the truth of the case.
