In the anti-theft team, Giraldi Marshal deals with criminals who commit thefts in apartments or steal cars. Among these is a band to which it belongs Blinds, a little thief inclined to confess things, Zagaja, a stutterer thief, and the Sicilians Rosario and Salvatore Trapani. Performed the theft in the villa of an American (former CIA), the thieves come into possession of documents about a system of bribes concerning some important personalities in the United States, the Deal Zebra Point.

Having become in contact with emissaries of the US Ralf Douglas Blinds requires a sum of money for the return of the booklet: is killed. The murder of Zagaja puts Giraldi Marshal in alarm, which senses that Douglas had been robbed of something important: to ascertain what are stalked the Trapanese brothers who have since been in touch with the Douglas emissaries. The attempt failed and the two thieves are killed, but an emissary of Douglas leaves a trace: thanks to that Giraldi flies to New York where, tracked down Douglas, has him arrested.
