People respect unhappiness and find it
especially hard to forgive success.
Francoise Sagan
And Sargenta Carmen of the Guardia Civil is definitely NOT forgiven for solving two murders and discovering who is selling drugs in Pueblo. More embarrassment for Church and State. Carmen sees it's time for an exit.
Back in Granada she once again makes contact with the two Romanian girls whom she liberated from the brothel. They had disappeared from the hospital before giving a statement, but now need her help when Ioana's mother is kidnapped in Bucharest by the monstrous gangster known as Doru. How to help?
She is surprised to be contacted by Doru's ex-employee Jorge, wanted for murder, just back from his surfing holiday and hoping to find ways to redeem himself. Carmen, having no one else to turn to for help to find Ioana, now kidnapped by Doru in Granada, applies to Jorge; who jumps on board. Will they succeed? And, if so, will their success be 'forgiven'?
Meanwhile, Jesús is in serious mental turmoil when Benzi, the father of his dead fiancée Ana, appears and challenges him to help to assassinate Ana's killer. They somehow become involved in the Ioana rescue with notable outcomes which may also have something to do with redemption. Pepe of the Guardia is also redeemed – well, somewhat at least – when he actually gets something right for once.
Juan in LEC is still keeping an eye on the Materium and the parallel Materium; still philosophising, and still trying to edge Simon into accepting Spirit. But it's Plan Bee for Simon. Oh, oh.
