Roberto Esteban goes back to the neighbourhood where he spent his childhood and his memories are activated: street games, lost friends, coloured chicks, the urban legend on the Black Hand, and that old impossible love, Lola.<\/p>\n\n
Above all of them, there is still another memory: that on Gema “The mermaid”, a disabled girl who drowned in the municipal pool. The mystery of her death is brought to light in the middle of a crime plot linked to the rezoning of a series of territories in the Olimpic Madrid, as well as to some old friends and enemies such as Romero, El Lenteja and Richi, with who Roberto is about to play once again in his life.<\/p>\n\n
