After a girl is tragically murdered shortly after departing from a secluded religious community, Moreno finds himself embroiled in a challenging investigation. The community closes ranks and adamantly refuses to cooperate, making his task even more difficult. However, when another girl is abducted, and her gruesome evidence, in the form of bloody fingernails, is sent to the police, the walls of silence within the community begin to crumble, and people start speaking up.
