with Marshall Cecchini is 

consolidated, his contacts with 

the tight-lipped Captain Anceschi 

are much more formal, and the 

officer is less than enthusiastic 

about the Father's constant 

presence in the Carabinieri police 

station. Despite his disapproval, 

the two always end up reaching 

the same conclusion in regard to 

the difficult cases they encounter.
