She explains that the "Seal of the Fifth Moon" was used to trap the anima rinserrata —the "enclosed soul"—of a person who died by betrayal. The ritual required placing a personal object of the betrayer inside the vase. Montalbano looks at the woman's shoe on his desk.

Montalbano returns to his veranda. The scirocco has died. He pours himself a glass of Corvo red, looks at the sea, and mutters to himself: "The dead don't need seals. They need the truth."

The next morning, a frantic call comes in from Fazio. A woman, thirty-five-year-old architect named Laura Patanè, has been reported missing from Vigàta's new marina development. Her husband, a wealthy contractor named Rinaldo Grasso, claims she left for a walk three days ago and never returned.
