The story centers on Rafael, who recounts to a mysterious woman named Paloma the events that led to the formation of an unlikely criminal gang.
Everything begins when Víctor Reyes, owner of the company Sanitarios Reyes, names Rafael as his successor and announces his intention to leave the business to its employees. But Víctor’s sudden death and the arrival of his reckless son Andy threaten the future of both the company and the Valle Soleado community.
Determined to save the business, Rafael joins forces with his wife Marcela, who hides a mysterious past, along with Camilo and Nina, to form an improvised gang. What starts as a desperate attempt to protect their livelihoods quickly escalates into a dangerous chain of kidnappings, robberies, betrayals and unexpected alliances, culminating in the group’s biggest and riskiest heist.
The cast is led by Miguel Rodarte, Paulina Gaitán, Tessa Ia and Aldo Escalante, alongside Fernando Bonilla, Aida López, Raúl Briones, Juan Daniel García Treviño and Martín Saracho. The series also features special appearances by Juan Carlos Colombo and Jesús Ochoa.
The series is created by showrunners Gabriel Nuncio and Alexandro Aldrete, with scripts by Josh Candia, Carla Sierra, Olfa Masmoudi, Alo Valenzuela and Karín Valecillos, and direction by Federico Veiroj and Salvador Espinosa.
