Uriel, a gentle and remarkably sensitive detective, finds himself abruptly transferred to Departamento 8, a precinct notorious for its unsolvable cold cases and the haunted gazes of its officers. Gifted with an uncanny empathy, Uriel can subtly read emotions and unspoken truths, turning every negotiation and interrogation into a delicate dance. Yet, his sensitivity, while a powerful asset, masks a profound fear of vulnerability, a shield built after a past loss he refuses to acknowledge. As a surge of disappearances plagues the city of 2026, Uriel uncovers a pattern pointing to a conspiracy far deeper than petty crime. The very fabric of justice in the city is unraveling, forcing him to confront not only the darkness without, but also the walls he's built within himself. The stakes are personal, the truth, devastating.
