Let go from her job at the magazine when there are cutbacks, Nuria has to face up to some of her childhood obsessions. A mysterious telephone call starts everything unravelling, her real father, from whom she and her brother Raúl have heard nothing in years, has reappeared and is in intensive care. Her brilliant childhood with him, the conflicts with their mother, her fear of wasps – which she manages by compulsively scribbling images of them – and suddenly her life is overwhelmed with danger and uncertainty. Finally she will discover her father's hidden past, and the reasons he abandoned them, and perhaps embrace a second chance for the many things she has to come to terms with, as she faces the last wasps' nests in the garden.
