Indira Ramos Series 2
The most famous crime in the history of Spain fell under the statute of limitations. But a serial murderer will always kill again. Indira Ramos and her brigade will have to find the victims in order to capture the killer.
Thirty years ago a brutal murder shocked Spanish public. The killer was never captured. Until now. Inspector Indira Ramos has spent the last three years on unpaid leave in her native Extremadura. Apart from her family, nobody knows that she has given birth to a girl, Alba, the matter kept secret from deputy inspector Iván Moreno, the father of her daughter. When in December 2022 the time comes to rejoin the staff of the police station in Madrid, she feels demotivated and is ready to give up her job. She is unable to face Iván whom she blames for the death of her friend, Dani. Neither of them still know that they will have to solve the biggest criminal brain teaser in the history of modern Spain: at a petrol station there were found the fingerprints of the one who has been for years the most wanted man in the country. As the brutal killing is now prescriptive, there is no reason for the police to detain the main suspect of the crime who now lives under an assumed identity. But Inspector Ramos is convinced that a killer will always commit another murder. She only needs to find the crime for which he will not go unpunished.
