In the heart of Spain, Lieutenant Lucia Guerrero of the Guardia Civil is confronted with a horrifying scene: her colleague, Sergio, found crucified and meticulously glued to a calvary outside Madrid. As Lucia grapples with this brutal murder, a parallel investigation unfolds in Salamanca. A team of criminology students, guided by Professor Salomón Borges, utilizes an advanced AI program to uncover a serial killer whose decades-long spree has gone unnoticed.

This elusive killer stages victims to mimic Renaissance paintings, drawing inspiration from Ovid's Metamorphoses, and earning the moniker "The Glue Killer." As Lucia and Borges's paths converge, they must confront a truth more disturbing than any myth, navigating a complex web of art, technology, and deeply buried fears. This thriller promises a journey into a dark investigation where every character faces their own past and profound terrors.
