Spirits are high, and the group is enjoying all that paradise has to offer. But a shadow falls over the charming island when a body is found in the water below the infamous Salto di Tiberio cliff. Who is the dead man, and why does he have a Belmonte Travels brochure in his pocket? Has a snake crept into paradise, or is there perhaps someone among the travelers who is on Capri for other reasons than to experience the good things the island has to offer?
