Betty Jara, a seasoned former member of the Senad and now the head of investigations under the Ministry of the Interior, faces a critical situation when one of her agents is abducted by a criminal group. To rescue him, Betty seeks assistance from the new head of the Senad, Graciela Agüero, who is responsible for negotiating the agent's release in exchange for one of her own.
