Sandra Ortiz finds the corpse of an old family friend purportedly buried long ago in an isolated cabin. Sandra is an auxiliary police officer gifted with high intelligence and photographic memory who returned to her hometown in Cantabria to exert motherhood, leaving a career in an important tech company behind. She also has a complicated relationship with her father Tello, a legendary retired UCO agent with developing signs of senile dementia and resentful of her daughter's life choices, while Castro, the father of Sandra's son, is about to leave prison after seven years.[1][2][3][4]

Pere Solà Gimferrer of La Vanguardia wrote that "Martínez, while remaining faithful to a hackneyed genre, finds ways to mislead the viewer".[4]

Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave the series 52 points ('so-so') writing about "a morbid and lazy story" that "works half-heartedly".[3]
