On the 27 November 2012, the Spanish Embassy in Mexico has to notify Georgina Mir, as sole living relative, that her father, a famous archaeologist, has disappeared without trace three days before in Palenque, where he was carrying out an excavation. Like a cruel joke, Georgina feels that fate is making fun of her family: three years previously, her mother had also disappeared, and was never seen again. Still shaken, the girl travels to Palenque, determined that she will not be left without answers this time, and ready to move heaven and earth if necessary in order to get her father back. What she cannot know is that she will become involved in a frenzied race for clues until encountering a truth for which she is unprepared.
