the note. - the late Mr. RameneTubero, Cagliari, 16th May, 19XX.Sardo Ramene, outstanding public figure, business associate, accountant and founder of drink-and-dance houses "Blue Flamingo", was found dead by the shore on the outskirts of town in the early morning on the 15th of May. Direct cause - several bullet wounds to the chest from a nonmagical handgun, model yet to be determined. His death comes as a bolt of lightning to all who knew and didn't know him. Mr. Ramene was an affable gentleman with many close acquaintances and partners in and out of the Province, few enemies and no prosecutions. Well-known for his entertainment establishments and willingness to lend a charitable hand, he helped various construction and artistic projects, as well as several Jeans circles. Judicious and down-to-earth, he was an accomplished man of modern times, whose end comes far too soon at the age of 38 years.Witnesses say that on the night of the murder Ramene went out with two of his men: the guard Cicone Meloni and the Jean and part-time guard Alessi Piscadori. They went to the tailor on Fressia street and then to the Corneddu watchmaker, before heading to the beach for a stroll. Ramene sent Meloni home because of the latter man's foot pain, leaving him alone with Piscadori, the current prime suspect. Unfortunately, dead men tell no tales and neither will Piscadori, whose body was found at the scene with several punch bruises and Ramene's knife lodged into his abdomen.Such a meditated murder has not been heard of in the Judgedom of Sardinia in over 50 years, marking itself as the first assassination of a notable individual in the 20th century.Although appearing as a straightforward case of a disgruntled employee falling off the ledge, there may be more to it than that.Who is Alessi Piscadori? A goodnatured youth from a fisherman's family, who was called by the wonders of the sea and became an adventurer? To glide upon and dive into the waters of our homeland and beyond? His friends and locals describe him as such, one fellow Jean saying "He hadn't in him to crack open a crab, much less shoot a man". If so, why would someone as harmless as Piscadori reach the point of no return? The victim was indeed a man of high-class, but not of low morals. Could it have been debt or a sweet-and-salty mistress singing her song into his ear? Or, perhaps, there was another 'invisible man', the third person, who shot one and blamed the other? The sands swallowed up their footprints overnight, the sea ever so azure though innocent blood flows within it.the info.
