In the second book of the trilogy Inspector Salazar is now in the last month of her pregnancy.
She goes to court for the trial to Jasón Medina, the man who in the previous book killed his stepdaughter and tried to imitate the serial killer. The trial has to be called off when Jasón commits suicide. The man was in the toilet when he slashed his neck with a blade that apparently someone had left glued to the toilet. Amaia is told that the man had a letter addressed to her with one word, Tarttolo, a mythological being from the Basque folklore.
Amaia then goes to have lunch with her husband, James, and his parents, who are visiting before the birth of the baby. Clarice, her mother-in-law, is not an easy woman to put up with because she has fixed ideas about the arrangements to make, and Amaia has to bite her tongue, knowing that she will leave soon. That night Amaia goes into labour and James takes her to hospital.
