Darío, known for his impeccable marksmanship but untested in lethal force, finds himself plunged into a nightmarish investigation. When the newborn son of Pancho and Samara vanishes, leaving behind only cryptic clues and a grieving family, the case takes a dark turn. The meticulous removal of the baby's organs points to a highly skilled, yet malevolent, hand.

Their macabre enterprise thrives in the shadows, evading the grasp of law enforcement.
As the investigation unfolds, Rosalinda, Julio's wife, becomes an unwitting pawn in his dark schemes. Her discoveries and growing suspicions about Julio's true nature set her on a collision course with a horrifying truth that could shatter her world. Torn between loyalty and a quest for justice, Rosalinda's journey reveals the depths of human depravity and the fragile line between love and monstrosity.
