The murderer, upon being found out, kills Reyes. From that moment on, he faces the difficulty of getting rid of the body in an island like El Hierro, where it is difficult to vanish without trace. Especially after the disappearance of the local police officer gives rise to a public outcry. There is a reaction in the island. Police forces, civil defense services and volunteers start a desperate search. The most likely scenario is that the murderer Reyes was investigating is back in action. Candela is devastated; she feels guilty because she is the one who enlisted Reyes for an investigation that strictly speaking was not part of her work duties.
