SPOILERS!!!
Amaia discovers that there are three cases of murdered women, killed by men who did a clumsy job and did not try to hide their identities. Yet, all three of them had one amputated limb, skillfully removed, and then the women's killers committed suicide, leaving the word 'Tarttalo'. The word refers to a mythological figure.
Amaia wants Judge Markina to let her investigate the connection between these three deaths, and the man tells her to go and see him later that night at a restaurant. Amaia goes, wanting for the meeting to be brief, but the judge insists she sit and eat with him, which Amaia does reluctantly. When the judge agrees to give his permission, he also hints that he is interested in her romantically, but Amaia makes him understaned that their relationship is strictly professional.
Amaia moves to Elizondo, where her family have always lived, to investigate the attacks to the church. As she continues investigating the three women, she realises that all three either lived in the Baftan area or were connected with the area. She also investigates the attack to the church, which seems to be connected to the agotes, a social group that was maginalised in the Middle Ages. She discovers that there is a teenager that has a blog about the blog, and he is also a new parishioner in the church. His name is Beñat Zaldua, who remained in the back of the churchn during mass, and Amaia starts suspecting because the agotes used to remain in that area of the church for the marginalised condition they had.
Amaia is worried for her sister Ros, who is now in charge of the bakery. Ros appears subdued, but when Amaia asks her, she disregards her worries.
