The sea had always been a part of their family, until the day it took everything. In 2012, Julián Gómez and his young daughter, Laura, set sail from San Pedro del Mar for a father-daughter weekend. From her spot on the shore, Julián’s wife, María, watched them go, a strange, unshakable hollow feeling in her chest. It was the last time she saw them.
For twelve years, the mystery of El Albatros haunted the coast. The boat was found empty, a ghost ship with a torn sail and clues that didn’t add up. The case went cold, and María was left with only the echo of her own questions.
The silence was broken by a retired captain with a folder full of secrets. The satellite images he showed María painted a scene of violence: a speedboat’s interception, a struggle on the deck, a swift getaway. The official story of a tragic accident crumbled in an instant, replaced by a far more sinister narrative of a deliberate attack.
The revelation that Julián had been investigating a corrupt fishing company added a terrifying motive. The empty boat was not a tragedy; it was a crime scene. The horizon that had swallowed her family had also hidden the truth, but María is no longer waiting for the sea to give her answers. She is now navigating a different kind of current—one of corruption, cover-ups, and a long-delayed reckoning.
