Summary
People try to be the king but the ace is back, with a banging new theme tune and a story that explores the decadence of the Palermo Belle Époque. The mafia is now well entrenched and reaching ever further into the Italian system; a banking crisis exposes industrial-scale fraud and leads to the first eminent corpse.
