THEthe case of the third episode of the fiction A cop in the Apennines (this evening on Rai 1 to 9.30pm) is complicated.

Also joining them in the investigation is Sallustio, with whom Vasco had disagreements in the past. There is bad blood between the two, but they are forced to collaborate.
There are also matters of the heart to be resolved. In the previous episode Benassi and Nicole broke up due to different views on the concept of a couple, but in this episode the two find harmony again. Friendly or even loving? Something had also broken between Amaranta and Magicoespecially because of the policewoman: when she hears about stable relationships she becomes anxious.

A cop in the Apennines: next episode, plot previews April 23rd on Rai 1 and RaiPlay
A man is hit and killed by a combine harvester. He is a 42-year-old Albanian, already arrested several times. The case that Vasco (Claudio Bisio) and his team must investigate immediately appears anomalous: it doesn’t seem like a classic provincial crime, but something much more complex. Whoever acted appears to be a professional.
We’re starting to talk about a possible motive: revenge between thieves? Before taking his last breath, the victim uttered the name “Lobster”. Did the killer wear a mask or call himself that? Vasco and Amaranta (Chiara Celotto) track down a Chinese street vendor who has sold a series of masks to the same man. The killer kills again. For the commissioner it is a serial killer who targets thieves.
Benassi is joined in the investigation by his arch-enemy Sallust. In fact, there is bad blood between the two due to old grudges. Meanwhile, Amaranta manages to extort some information from some drug dealers who say they saw the killer in a white tracksuit and with a mask. The Lobster continues to kill, it would seem, following a precise list of names.
