La confessioneDirected by ANDREA BARZINI
Paola Salvarani is found in her home with her skull smashed in. Natalina saw a man running from the scene of the crime, and thanks to her testimony, the Carabinieri track down the alleged murderer: Giovanni Antonelli, a murderer on temporary release from jail. The man confesses to Don Matteo that he had a secret relationship with the woman, but says he is not her killer. Meanwhile, the townspeople protest the crime. They feel threatened and resort to vigilante justice, mercilessly harassing the man. To make matters worse, there is the victim's fiancé, Alessio Leoni, proprietor of the woollen-mill where the woman worked. But working at the same factory is also Alessio's cousin, Pia Leoni, and Daniela Danzi, who were Paola's best friends and are Alessio' top assistants in the running of the company.
