Premise

To that end, Ballester requires the services of Jorge Vega (Daniel Grao), who moves from Salamanca to Madrid in order to help with the investigation, unbeknownst the main reason behind the requirement of Ballester is that the latter wants to approach Vega's girlfriend Laura Nieto (Silvia Abascal), supposedly a key piece in the case.
