As Granada moves through its winter cycle of pageants and rituals, Inspector Max Romero investigates assaults on two young women. Both had received threatening notes. And then Mariana is found dead.

The police are convinced they are dealing with a serial assailant but Max discovers a link to the death of Mariana's father. The ghosts of the coup are still powerful. And deadly.
