Synopsis

The small coastal town of Roquesas is shaken by the disappearance of one of its residents: the sixteen-year-old girl, Sandra López.
When they find the teenager's horribly mutilated body at the back of one of the town's most distinguished residents' house, everyone suspects Álvaro Alsina as the perpetrator of the crime.
The well-meaning local society begins a witch hunt, blaming Álvaro for the crime, while at the same time weaving a dense web of deceit around him, with the sole purpose of incriminating him.
Álvaro watches as his entire world crumbles around him without him, or his family, being able to do anything to stop it. His friends, his wife, his children, his lover, and even the police chief, all consider him the author of the crime.

    Jake Doyle used to be famous.

    Jake is playing out the string when his tranquil world is turned upside down. His biracial son - an ambitious entrepreneur - is marked for death by a street gangster, his alcoholic daughter is pregnant and wants an abortion - which his ex-wife is determined to stop at any cost - and his boss, a wealthy publisher, wants Jake to give up his column to help him run for president. 
    Jake believes in gun control, but he wants to protect his son. He believes in his daughter's right to choose, but that belief looks different now that it's personal. And he wants to keep writing his column without interference, but he also wants one more chance to be famous again.
