Plot

Commissioner Nardelli is charged with capturing the dangerous bandit Mazzarò, who in Sicily killed a notary and kidnapped a girl. The key to the criminal organization is a young woman, Maria, who is the lover of a local baron and, at the same time, of the wanted bandit. Nardelli will succeed in the enterprise thanks to the police dog Dox. Once the mission is over, the two are transferred to Rome, where they solve the case of a model killed in the context of drug trafficking.
