A hyper-religious elderly couple barricade themselves in their home and begin shooting from their balcony for no apparent reason. When a camera crew videotapes Montalbano and his men entering the home, they become overnight heroes. The publicity brings out the kooks, however, and a disturbed maniac begins a macabre treasure hunt with Montalbano, sending him strange riddles linked to the kidnapping and murder of a young girl. Montalbano and his team try to sort out the insanity before a new murder is committed.

EPISODE 22 - THE AGE OF DOUBT
Nothing is as it seems in Inspector Montalbano's investigation of a corpse found at sea. When a young girl arrives from Palermo claiming to meet her aunt, who's pulling into Vigata harbor in a yacht, he discovers a connection between the corpse, the yacht, and a motorboat called "Ace of Hearts". He finds himself attracted to a young Coast Guard officer assigned to help in the case, but there's no time for soul searching when a second corpse shows up and there's a gruesome mystery to solve.
