Sempre às voltas com os próprios fantasmas—o pai violento, as mulheres que usou, os colegas de banda que traiu— , Jude não tem medo de encarar mais um. Quando o item é entregue na sua casa, numa caixa preta em forma de coração, logo fica claro que não se trata de um fantasma imaginário.

Con lui, in quella cella sotterranea, c'è un telefono antico, nero e da tempo disconnesso. Eppure, di notte squilla, e all'altro capo dell'apparecchio si sentono le voci delle precedenti vittime.
