Summary:

La presidenta de la Generalitat Valenciana, Vita Castellá, aparece muerta en la habitación de un lujoso hotel de Madrid. La comprometida situación exige que quede oficialmente descartado un posible asesinato y que la investigación encalle, de manera que el partido en el poder, al que la víctima pertenece, ha activado todos los recursos y ha hecho sonar todos los teléfonos de las altas esferas que le puedan ayudar a ganar tiempo. Por su parte, el jefe de la policía de la Comunitat Valenciana decide ayudar al ministro del Interior y al director de la Policía Nacional, Juan Quesada Montilla, en su misión: despistar a las autoridades. Para ello ponen el caso en manos de dos inspectoras novatas y peculiares: las hermanas Berta y Marta Miralles. Radicalmente opuestas entre sí, deberán enfrentarse juntas a un turbio mundo de intereses.

The President of the Generalitat Valenciana, Vita Castellá, is found dead in a luxurious hotel room in Madrid. Such a compromising situation demands that the possibility of murder gets officially ruled out and the investigations cease, and so, those in the ruling party, which the victim had been a member of, have activated every resource and phoned everyone in the highest spheres that might help them buy some time. Meanwhile, the Chief of Police of the Comunitat Valenciana decides to help the Minister of Interior and the National Police Director, Juan Quesada Montilla, in their mission: distract the authorities. For such a purpose, they leave the case in the hands of two new and peculiar inspectors, sisters Berta and Marta Miralles. Radically different from each other, together they will face a shady world of hidden agendas.
