Siena is feverishly preparing for the Palio, a horse race dating back to the Middle Ages held every summer in the centre of the town. Lawyer Enzo Maggione and his wife are unwittingly caught up in the maelstrom of plots, counterplots and bribes surrounding the race, including the violent death of Puddu, the Palio's most celebrated jockey.
