Plot
Andrés Expósito, played by Ricardo Gómez, is a young police officer who has had a difficult life. Because he is orphaned by both mother and father, he spent part of his childhood in a Social Aid's orphanage and has dedicated his whole life to duty and effort.
In 1982, he decides to move ? along with his daughter ? from the innermost neighborhoods of Madrid to a small town by the sea. He hopes that this change will help to improve the health of the young girl and, in the process, help, also improve the quality of life that they did not have in the capital. The peace of mind won?t last long, since the inspector he had come to replace had been killed under strange circumstances and Andrés is involved in a major investigation to find the killer.
The different clues he collects will lead him to a hotel near the coast where he discovers that there is a community of elderly people who had belonged to the Nazi party during World War II. All of them had ran away from their countries, where they were wanted for crimes against humanity, before being tried. However, hiding there, they found themselves in a luxury retreat where they could live a quiet and happy life without being accountable to anyone for the damage they had caused.
