He picks and chooses his victims in the social network, datebook.it, which intersects the lives of the protagonists: Chiara, Deborah, and Marco. Three college students with very different styles, personalities, and ambitions, but that for a couple of weeks are sucked by the lifestyle, the fashion, and economy of Milan. In the meantime, the Milan police are on the move, in and out of the network, with the help of a social behavior expert. The hunt for the murderer has begun. It’s a race against time. Many more girls are in the danger. None suspect that, among their contacts in the social network, there exists a Social killer who is on the hunt for new prey.
