STORY:
Simon is at the customs in Rome when he notices a family that seems unnaturally nervous. Later young Alfredo Ravenna is sitting near him in the plane. He tells Simon that the Ravenna family is planning to emigrate to New York. They're staying in the same hotel as Templar in Geneva. In the evening the Saint witnesses the murder of Mr. Ravenna. It seems like the murderer knew exactly what he wanted - Ravenna's briefcase. It contained jewels that were meant as starting money in NY. What's Ravenna's assistant Carlo Visconti's role in this scheme?
