Mad (Mob) Men

So sometime in the 1960s, the mafia buried a woman alive on a beach. (In the flashback scene, we learn that she's the wife of an uncle I never knew I had.) They left her mouth free to breathe, but it was a deserted strech of sand and the off season and she isn't found for forty years. When she is discovered--along with her strangely well-preserved turquoise satchel and bright-red suitcase--the case is turned over to the precinct where I am working as a detective. I have to take the luggage to a different building to be examined, and I'm not even out of the lobby before someone is after me to get it back.
