The narrative centers on a tragic incident from fifteen years ago, where a girl drowned in a canal and was saved by an alcoholic man, who later lost his memory of the event. Now, her grandmother urges detective Brunetti to investigate, despite potential legal limitations. As he delves into the case, Brunetti navigates the complexities of modern Venetian life, including themes of historical preservation and migration, while grappling with the haunting implications of the girl's permanent childhood and the unresolved mystery surrounding her past.
