La ragazza nella nebbia

A killer normally commits twenty errors, but is only aware of a third of them. Most of them are due to carelessness or inexperience. But there's one type of error that we can consider deliberate. It's a sort of signature. "The devil's dumbest sin is vanity". But where's the fun in being the devil if you can't let anyone else know?

Those surrounded by others deaths don't think about their own.

All authors are inspired by something someone wrote before them. The first rule for a great novelist is to copy.

16-year-olds have secrets.

It's all connected. It all is. It all has meaning. Even bad things.

At times reporters are better than cops in digging up clues, and investigation details aren't the only thing they televise.

Furthermore, doubt is a moral duty. But also an inviolable right for the suspect.

Someone once said the devil's dumbest sin is vanity.

Evil is the driving force of a story. We must find a sacrificial victim, preferably someone who's innocent. The leading character must be evasive, everyone should suspect him. In literature people kill for hate, but in real life, the motive is usually money.
