While investigating the theft of a high C from the chest at the Scala theatre and looking for someone who stole all Milan’s colours, inspector Busillis has the time to go to the Louvre museum in Paris, where someone stole the Gioconda’s smile. Thanks to his police dog, to his wife Renata and to tv-detective stories, Busillis, believing in the unbelievable, always finds the solution. A very funny book for children aged 9 and over.
