In the midst of a silent divorce, Isabel leaves the city with her children for her family’s country house. She soon discovers that the sister of her housekeeper, María, has gone missing. When Isabel offers help, an unspoken pact to find the missing one is born between the two women. Meanwhile, Roberta, the police commander-in-charge, tries to get her son out of the cartels. The countryside is mined with confusion and danger, but determination in the face of destiny subsists
