In the Cambrils streambed, two bodies are discovered: a woman wrapped in a sheet, holding an ostrich feather with her heart removed, and a dismembered prosecutor stuffed inside a suitcase, his face covered by a mask of the Egyptian god Anubis.Agents Sagi and Vidal soon uncover an unexpected link between this brutal crime, a nuclear accident at the Vandellós power plant three decades earlier, and the legend surrounding Albert Coma, a 19th‑century Egyptologist fascinated by ancient culture and the promise of eternal life.
With the help of journalist Lara Peña, the investigators must piece together a puzzle that reaches back to ancient Egypt, where the beauty of myth may conceal the most perverse brutality.
