Episode 2
Candela must decide if Díaz is kept in pretrial custody. Against the criterium of her team, and of the whole island, he is released on bail, although he won’t be allowed to leave the island and he will be closely monitored. In any case, it’s an extremely unpopular decision, compounded by Díaz’s determination to find the real culprit by himself. Candela, at odds with her own team, needs someone by her side to rely on, someone who also knows the ropes of the island. She takes a new controversial decision – she includes Reyes, a local police officer, in the investigation team.

Episode 3
The investigation brings to light the dark side of Fran’s life: he had established contact with some mysterious person in Holland, and he had an affair with an unknown lover. Did Fran die because he was involved in some shady business? Or was it a crime of passion? Both Candela and Díaz make progress in their respective investigations, carried out independently. Díaz believes Fran used his contacts from the milieu of a dangerous drug smuggler. And Candela makes an uncomfortable discovery – Fran’s mysterious lover is someone very close to her.

Episode 4
During a clandestine trip out of the island, Díaz discovers that Fran, just before he died, was trying to sell some valuable merchandise. He doesn’t know what kind of merchandise. And above all, he doesn’t know who was the partner from El Hierro who cooperated with him in the operation. This mysterious partner could be the murderer, because he is trying to get something from Fran’s environment (he broke into his and his mother’s houses…) Meanwhile, Candela feels the police investigation is progressing too slowly. The only person she trusts is Reyes. And in fact, the local police officer does discover (and us with her) who the murderer is. But she won’t live to tell the tale.

Episode 5
The murderer, upon being found out, kills Reyes. From that moment on, he faces the difficulty of getting rid of the body in an island like El Hierro, where it is difficult to vanish without trace. Especially after the disappearance of the local police officer gives rise to a public outcry. There is a reaction in the island. Police forces, civil defense services and volunteers start a desperate search. The most likely scenario is that the murderer Reyes was investigating is back in action. Candela is devastated; she feels guilty because she is the one who enlisted Reyes for an investigation that strictly speaking was not part of her work duties.
