Detective Anna Ripoll is assigned to investigate a baffling case after an unidentified woman is discovered bound inside a shipping container at the Port of Barcelona. The victim survives but wakes up with no memory of her name, her past, or how she ended up there.

As Anna and fellow officer Quique Zárate search for answers, every clue uncovers another layer of deception. The woman appears to be connected to a dangerous criminal network, yet her missing memories make it difficult to separate truth from manipulation.
