This film just runs in circles while getting nowhere. They have introduced so many characters who seem primary to the plot but in the end only focus on the main character, Amaiya. She is not bad, but too involved in the case personally. Is it really ok in Spain to have personal/family involvement in a case and still be on it? It's her mother she's looking for, for god's sake!! Also, there's cheating for no apparent reason. Markina honestly is not even charming at all? He seems whiny and needy and when did he fall in love with her? Was there ever a mention of that in the previous series and I missed it? I'm not so sure. The only character I really enjoyed watching was Jonan. Like, I would have been personally ok with the plot is she cheated on her husband with him. But they kill him! And he turns out to be gay which was a cheap try at a surprise factor. The mystery is not central. It's just Amaiya Amaiya Amaiya. We know she's the main character but we're not gonna watch 7+ hours of reel for a soap opera which sells itself as a mystery/mythology thriller? All in all, I'm really not sure what I watched.
