A decenni di distanza dalla strage di Piazza Fontana, lo scrittore Nicotrain scopre in un tramezzo di una casa in ristrutturazione alcune fotografie inedite. Mostrano un possibile colpevole, sfuggito alle indagini dell\\\'epoca. Un colpevole protetto dal Kratos: il potere cannibale di un pezzo di Stato che mangia i propri figli. Il buio che divora le certezze, il Potere che si fa Mostro Oscuro, ferro e fuoco di quel disgraziato dicembre 1969.
