A beloved presenter has recently died in a fatal car accident and Julita, a young journalist, suspects there is more to the story. She knows that an inside scoop is priceless and can turn her into a media sensation overnight. And it's worth it even though the truth is dangerous. As events unfold Julita delves deeper and deeper into a web of intrigues and lies, and it becomes evident that her actions have become a threat. Each move carries consequences, as she is under the watchful eye of someone who is capable of unearthing her most intimate secrets and shattering her world with just a single click. Julita finds her strongest allies in both her family, and in entirely unexpected places. The enemy, hidden within the darknet, proves to be ruthless. Eventually, it becomes clear that the investigation revealed only the tip of the iceberg, and what lies beneath has the potential to shock not only her loved ones but the entire country.
