Short filmTranscript
00:00Leocadia vs Lorenzo. The price for Angela. In The Promise, Angela's disappearance takes a brutal turn. Lorenzo confesses and puts Leocadia between a rock and a hard place.
00:16If she wants to get her daughter back alive, she will have to pay a very high price. Meanwhile, Alonso faces a new failure in his attempts to make a pact with the man from Valladares, which sinks the Lujans even further.
00:34On another front, the reconciliation between Tonio and Simona does not convince Onora, who accuses her partner of being dishonest.
00:41Curro, desperate, begs Cristobal to organize the search for Angela, but receives a blunt refusal and decides to act on his own.
00:56And when all seems lost, Maria Fernandez remembers the cave where she was kidnapped and proposes an idea as risky as it is dangerous. To look for Angela there.
01:05Wednesday, September 3rd, an episode where lies are paid for in blood and every decision can cost a life.
01:18The air in The Promise had become thick, almost unbreathable.
01:23Every corridor, every room, every corner of the service area seemed to have absorbed the collective anguish that hung like an invisible miasma.
01:30Silence was no longer a bomb, but a stifled cry. Angela did not appear. Each passing hour was a hammer blow to the anvil of Leocadia's soul, forging a fear that was ever sharper and colder.
01:44The young maid, with her easy laugh and charming clumsiness, had vanished like the smoke from an extinguished candle, leaving behind only the cold trace of her absence.
02:01Leocadia did not eat, did not sleep.
02:04Her body moved by pure inertia, a puppet whose strings were hope and despair in a constant pulse.
02:10Her eyes, once lively and full of a spark of maternal mischief, were now two dark, feverish wells that searched every face, searching for an answer that no one had.
02:26She had walked the grounds of the estate until the soles of her shoes wore out and her feet bled.
02:31She had asked every farm laborer, every guard, every living soul for miles around.
02:43The answer was always the same.
02:46A shrug, a look of pity, a, sorry, Leocadia, we haven't seen you.
02:51The civil guard had combed the surrounding area, their green uniforms a somber stain against the golden beauty of the Lujan fields.
03:04Their questions were methodical, their searches exhaustive, but their results were nil.
03:12Angela had vanished from the face of the earth.
03:15For Leocadia, the world had stopped the moment she realized that her daughter would not be back for dinner.
03:21Everything else was a blur, background noise to the deafening pounding of her own terrified heart.
03:34And then, just when hope was beginning to fray to the thinnest of threads, the summons arrived.
03:39It was not an official note or an urgent message.
03:46It was a simple message delivered by a footman with his eyes downcast, almost fearful.
03:54The captain of the bush wanted to see her in his office.
03:58Leocadia's heart immediately skipped a beat so violently that she had to lean against the wall of the service corridor.
04:03Lorenzo, what could Lorenzo possibly want from her at a time like this?
04:11Her relationship with the captain had always been distant, professional, tinged with the deference that a maid should show a gentleman.
04:17But beneath that surface she had always sensed an undercurrent, an intensity in his gaze that unsettled her.
04:31Now that unease was turning into an icy panic.
04:35She felt, with the bestial certainty of a mother, that this man was the key to everything.
04:39On trembling legs, she smoothed her apron with clumsy hands and climbed the grand staircase, each step a step toward an unknown gallows.
04:53The gentleman's wing was silent, an oppressive calm that contrasted brutally with the chaos inside.
05:02The door to Lorenzo's office stood ajar, an ominous invitation.
05:06She took a breath that didn't quite reach her lungs and knocked softly with her knuckles.
05:15Come in, Lorenzo's voice rang out, raw and sharp, with a steely edge.
05:20Leocadia entered.
05:24The office smelled of leather, expensive tobacco, and power.
05:28Lorenzo stood by the window, his back to her, gazing out at the gardens that stretched out in the afternoon sun.
05:36He didn't turn around immediately.
05:40The silence stretched, taut as a violin string about to snap.
05:47Leocadia could hear the ticking of the large grandfather clock, every second a dull thump against her temples.
05:56Poor Leocadia, Lorenzo said finally.
05:59His voice was a murmur laden with false compassion that made her skin crawl.
06:06He turned slowly, and the expression on his face was not one of pity, but of predatory satisfaction.
06:15What terrible ordeal are you going through?
06:18The uncertainty must be unbearable torture.
06:20Captain, Leocadia stammered, her hands wringing on her apron.
06:30I appreciate your concern.
06:33If you called me to offer me comfort, I appreciate it, but right now.
06:38Quote
06:38Oh, no, Leocadia, he interrupted her, taking a step toward her.
06:46His dark eyes searched her, baring her soul.
06:51I did not call to offer you comfort.
06:55Comfort is useless.
06:56I prefer solutions.
07:00Leocadia looked at him, confused.
07:02A shiver ran down her spine.
07:05Solutions.
07:06What do you mean, sir?
07:07Do you know anything?
07:09Have you heard any news about Angela?
07:13Lorenzo smiled.
07:15It was a slow, cruel smile that did not reach his eyes.
07:19He went to his mahogany desk, poured himself a glass of brandy and held it up to the light,
07:24staring at the amber liquid as if it contained all the secrets of the universe.
07:30I know many things, Leocadia.
07:33I know, for for example, that her daughter is an impulsive, curious young woman.
07:42Sometimes curiosity leads people to places they shouldn't be, to overhear conversations they shouldn't hear.
07:51She set her glass down on the table without drinking and leaned against the edge, crossing her arms.
07:56Her posture was relaxed, but her gaze was that of a panther about to pounce.
08:04And I know that you, her mother, would do anything for her.
08:07Absolutely anything.
08:11I'm wrong.
08:13The air escaped from Leocadia's lungs.
08:15The implication was so monstrous, so clear, that it left her speechless.
08:24The color drained from her face, leaving it like a wax mask.
08:27You, the broken voice whispered.
08:34You have her.
08:35Do you know where she is?
08:37Knowing where she is is one way of putting it, Lorenzo replied, savoring every word, every ounce of the terror he was instilling in her.
08:44Let's just say I have considerable influence over her current whereabouts and her future well-being.
08:56The confession, though veiled, hit her with the force of a punch.
09:01Leocadia staggered, her knees giving way and she had to grab the back of a chair to keep from falling.
09:06The tears she had been holding at bay with superhuman determination sprang to her eyes hot and bitter.
09:20Why, she whimpered, why would I hurt my child?
09:23She's just a kid, she's done no wrong to anyone.
09:28I beg you, Captain, for the love of God, give her back to me.
09:33I'll do anything, anything.
09:37Lorenzo stepped closer to her, his shadow falling over her.
09:41He leaned down, his face inches from hers, and his voice dropped to a venomous hiss.
09:49Ah, Leocadia, that's the key word, anything.
09:53I'm glad, hear it, because what I'm going to ask of you is no small thing.
09:59Look, you and I have a problem.
10:01Your daughter, in her infinite stupidity, overheard something that could ruin my plans for good.
10:12And I can't allow that to happen, but killing her would be a waste and, frankly, too noisy.
10:17He raised a hand and with repulsive delicacy brushed a lock of hair from Leocadia's sweaty face.
10:27She recoiled as if his touch burned her.
10:34So I offer you a deal, he continued, ignoring her revulsion.
10:41An exchange, your daughter's life and freedom for something I need.
10:46A small service.
10:47An act of loyalty to me.
10:52What do you want?
10:55Leocadia asked, her voice barely a thread.
10:59Money, I don't have much, but I can.
11:02Quote, Lorenzo La La Laf, a dry, mirthless sound.
11:09Money, please, Leocadia, don't insult me.
11:12I have more money than you could count in ten lifetimes.
11:18No, what I want from you is much more valuable.
11:21I want your soul.
11:22I want your unwavering obedience.
11:28There are certain matters within this palace, certain people, specifically Mr. Kuro, who have become a nuisance.
11:37You are close to him.
11:39You enjoy his trust.
11:42You will be my eyes and ears, and when the time comes, you will be my executing hand.
11:52Leocadia's blood ran cold in her veins.
11:54Sheer, utter horror paralyzed her.
11:58He wasn't asking for money, he was asking her to betray, to spy, to become a weapon against a young man she cared about.
12:05A young man who had suffered enough already.
12:07No, she murmured.
12:12I can't do that to Kuro.
12:13He is, he is not, his daughter, Lorenzo, snapped, his mask of calm falling to reveal the fury that burned beneath.
12:20He grabbed her by the arms, his fingers sinking into her flesh.
12:27Your daughter is in a cold, dark place, Leocadia, alone and afraid.
12:32Every minute you hesitate, your suffering grows longer.
12:34Perhaps she is hungry, perhaps she is thirsty, perhaps, perhaps she does not have much time left.
12:42He released her with a shove that sent her stumbling.
12:47The choice is yours, loyalty to a boy you barely know or the life of the child you brought into this world.
12:53Think carefully, but do not take too long.
12:59Patience is not one of my virtues.
13:01He turned back to his desk, bidding her farewell.
13:08He had backed her into a corner, stripped her of all defenses, and now he left her writhing in agony from which there was no escape.
13:14Leocadia stood there trembling, broken, the echo of that cruel choice echoing in her head.
13:27She had to pay a price to get her daughter back.
13:30A price that was not measured in coins, but in pieces of her own consciousness.
13:38The captain not only had Angela, now she had her too.
13:41While Leocadia faced the abyss in Lorenzo's office, another kind of battle was being fought miles away.
13:52Alonso, Marquis of Lujan, felt the weight of the world on his shoulders as his carriage rocked down the dusty road leading to the palace of the man of Valladares.
14:04The mission was, as he himself had admitted to cruise, practically impossible.
14:09Convincing Ezekiel de Valladares of anything that did not spring from his own twisted convenience was like trying to stop the wind with your bare hands.
14:20The man was a man from another era, a dinosaur of the aristocracy who clung to his privileges with the tenacity of a bloodhound.
14:27His grudges were legendary, his memory for insults prodigious, and his heart, if he had one, was like stone.
14:37The conflict that pitted them against each other was a tangle of old debts, broken promises, and a pride so immense that it overshadowed any semblance of reason.
14:49But Alonso had no other choice.
14:55The promise's financial situation was precarious, and the man's influence in certain circles was the only lever that could get them out of this predicament.
15:02He had to try, if only so he could look himself in the mirror without feeling that he had failed his family through lack of courage.
15:12The Valladares palace rose before him, a grey, austere stone mass that looked like a mausoleum.
15:24In contrast to the warm bustle of the promise, a sepulchral silence reigned here, broken only by the crowing of crows in the ancient trees.
15:32The butler who received him was a reflection of his master, tall, gaunt, with an expression of perpetual disdain.
15:45The Lord Marquis of Lujan, the butler announced in a monotone voice as he opened the doors to the great hall.
15:51The man was sitting in a wingback chair that looked like a throne, a glass of sherry in one hand and a look of boredom on his wrinkled face.
16:05He didn't get up, Alonso.
16:07What an unexpected and surely unwelcome visit.
16:11I suppose you're not here to have tea and chat about the weather, he said, his voice like the crunch of gravel under a boot.
16:17I suppose you're not here to have tea and chat about the weather, Alonso maintained his composure, forcing a courtesy he didn't feel.
16:29Ezekiel, thank you for seeing me.
16:31And no, I'm not here for trivial reasons.
16:36I've come to speak as one man of honor to another.
16:40The man let out a dry chuckle.
16:43Honor, a word used far too lightly these days.
16:47What do you want, Alonso?
16:50Get to the point.
16:51My time is valuable.
16:52Alonso took a deep breath.
16:54I've come to ask you to reconsider your position.
16:58The arrangement we've proposed is fair to both parties.
17:01It would help to improve our finances and strengthen the bonds between our houses, as it should always have been.
17:10Fair enough, the man repeated, arching a bushy, graying eyebrow.
17:14You come to me with your hat in your hand after having scorned me for years, after your family has tarnished my name with their intrigues and scandals.
17:25The only bond I care to strengthen is the one that keeps my money well tied up in my pocket, out of reach of spendthrifts like you.
17:32The blood rose to Alonso's face, but he held it in.
17:39Anger would do him no good.
17:40Ezekiel, the mistakes of the past cannot continue to poison our future.
17:48I'm talking about pragmatism.
17:52What I'm offering you is not charity, it's an investment, an investment in stability.
17:57You know, as well as I do, that if a house like mine falls, the tremor could affect many others, including yours.
18:03Veiled threats, how unoriginal, Alonso.
18:10The man scoffed, taking a sip of his sherry.
18:16My house is built on rock, not on the sand of mismanagement and unfortunate marriages.
18:20Your downfall, if it comes, will be a pitiful spectacle that I will watch with great interest, but it will not drag me down with you.
18:34There was a tense silence.
18:36Alonso felt frustration like a lump in his throat.
18:42The man was a wall of granite.
18:44There were no cracks, no empathy, only an ancient, petrified contempt.
18:50Is there nothing I can say to change your mind?
18:56Alonso asked, his voice tinged with a desperation he had trouble hiding.
19:03The man stared at him, his small eyes gleaming with malice.
19:09Nothing you can say, but perhaps something you could do, though I doubt your pride would allow it.
19:14He sat down his cup and leaned forward.
19:21Kneel, Alonso.
19:22Kneel and beg my forgiveness.
19:27Not for your finances, but for the arrogance of your lineage.
19:31Humble yourself before me.
19:33Perhaps, just perhaps, if your humiliation is convincing enough,
19:36I will consider listening to your pathetic proposal again.
19:39Alonso froze.
19:44The demand was so excessive, so insulting, that for a moment he thought he had misheard.
19:52But the crooked smile on the man's face confirmed that he was serious.
19:57He wanted to see him broken, not just financially, but morally.
20:00He wanted to trample the Lujan name.
20:06Pride and need waged a fierce war inside Alonso.
20:13Images of his family, of the promise, of everything he loved flashed through his mind.
20:20Could he swallow this humiliation for them?
20:23He looked at the man before him, an old man consumed by resentment,
20:26and knew that even that sacrifice would not guarantee anything.
20:30It would only feed the man's monstrous ego.
20:35With a rigidity that denoted iron control.
20:38Alonso straightened.
20:42I'm afraid, Ezekiel, that you have confused desperation with a lack of dignity.
20:47A Lujan does not kneel before anyone.
20:53Have a good afternoon.
20:54He turned and walked out of the room without waiting for a response,
20:58the echo of the man's dry laughter following him through the silent hallways.
21:01The mission had not only been impossible, it had been a trap for his soul.
21:09He returned to the promise empty-handed and his heart heavier than ever.
21:13In the service area, the tensions were no less palpable,
21:20although their roots were more intimate and personal.
21:26The relationship between Tonio and Enora,
21:29which had blossomed like an unexpected flower in the arid soil of their lives,
21:33was now faltering under the weight of mistrust.
21:35The source of the conflict was ironically an act of apparent kindness.
21:43Tonio's reconciliation with his mother, Simona.
21:50Enora watched him from the other side of the kitchen
21:52as he peeled potatoes with almost feverish concentration.
21:55His face, normally open and expressive, was an impenetrable mask.
22:04They had been like this for days,
22:06moving around each other in a silence heavy with unspoken words.
22:12Finally, she couldn't take it anymore.
22:15We can talk, Enora said, her voice sharper than she intended.
22:22Tonio looked up, the knife stopping halfway.
22:24Sure, about what?
22:30About us, about you, about your mother, she snapped,
22:33crossing her arms at the sight of that farce you put on the other day.
22:39Tonio dropped the knife and potato on the table with a thud.
22:44Farce, what do you mean?
22:45I made peace with my mother.
22:49I thought it would make you happy.
22:51I did it for you.
22:53And that's precisely the problem, Tonio, she exclaimed,
22:56her voice vibrating with frustration.
23:00You did it for me.
23:02You didn't do it because you felt it.
23:04You didn't do it because you truly forgave her for all the harm she'd done to you.
23:08You did it to please me, as if I were a spoiled child who had to be pleased.
23:20But I just wanted us to be okay, he defended himself, confused.
23:23You told me it was important to you that my mother and I got along, that you couldn't be with me if I held so much resentment.
23:32I wanted you to resolve your resentment, not sweep it under the rug.
23:39She reproached him on the hour, moving closer to him.
23:41Her eyes shone with a mixture of anger and pain.
23:47I saw your face when you hugged her.
23:51I saw your eyes.
23:52There was no forgiveness in them, Tonio.
23:54There was resignation.
23:56There was an effort.
23:57It was an act.
24:01And you know what's worse, she knows it too.
24:04Simona is not stupid.
24:07She knows that your reconciliation is hollow, that it's not genuine.
24:11Tonio ran a hand through his hair, exasperated.
24:17And what did you want me to do on the hour?
24:19What did you expect?
24:21To forget years of abandonment and pain overnight?
24:24I did what I could.
24:27I took a step.
24:28That's not what counts.
24:30Not if the step is a false one, she insisted.
24:36What matters is the truth and you're not being honest with yourself, her or me.
24:45You're building our relationship on a lie, on an empty gesture.
24:49I don't want that, Tonio.
24:54I can't love a man who can't face his own demons.
24:57Who would rather pretend that everything is okay than do the hard work of truly healing.
25:04The accusation hit him hard.
25:06That's not fair.
25:08Anora, you don't know what it's like for me.
25:13You don't know what it's like to look her in the eyes and show me.
25:15She interrupted him, her voice breaking.
25:21Let me in.
25:23Share your pain with me instead of hiding it behind a fake smile.
25:27I fell in love with you, Tonio, with all your wounds and scars.
25:31I don't need a fairy tale prince, I need a real man.
25:38And a real man doesn't lie to keep the peace.
25:40They stared at each other in the silence of the kitchen, the abyss of their incomprehension opening between them.
25:52For Tonio, her gesture had been the ultimate sacrifice for love.
25:56For Anora, it had been the ultimate betrayal of the authenticity she valued so much.
26:05The lack of authenticity in her reconciliation with Simona had put the authenticity of her own love at risk, and neither of them knew how to bridge the gap.
26:12Desperation had many faces in the promise, but none as sharp and feverish as Kuro's.
26:26The young man felt Angela's disappearance as a personal affront, a failure that burned in his gut.
26:35He was convinced, with a certainty that bordered on obsession, that he could find her.
26:39He knew the terrain better than anyone.
26:44Every hidden path, every stream, every cave.
26:50He had spent his childhood exploring those places and felt that the land itself would speak to him if he let it.
27:00But to do so, he needed the authority to organize a search, to direct the men, to act quickly and effectively.
27:09And that authority was systematically denied to him by one man, Cristobal, the butler.
27:18She found him in the great hall, supervising the cleaning of the silver with exasperating meticulousness.
27:23Curro approached him, unable to contain the urgency that consumed him any longer.
27:33Quote.
27:36Mr Cristobal, I must insist, Curro began, his voice tense.
27:40Every hour we lose is one less chance of finding Angela alive.
27:48Allow me to organize a search party.
27:50I know these woods like the back of my hand.
27:55I know where to look, where no one else has thought to.
28:00Cristobal didn't even look up from the candelabra he was polishing.
28:03Mr Curro, we've been over this.
28:08The Guardia Civil is in charge of the investigation.
28:13They're professionals.
28:15We don't need some enthusiastic amateur running around and getting in the way of their work, erasing possible traces.
28:23I'm not an amateur, Curro protested, raising his voice.
28:26I grew up here.
28:29The Guardia Civil are outsiders, they don't know the terrain.
28:36I could find her, I'm sure of it.
28:39Your safety is irrelevant, Cristobal replied, his tone icy.
28:46My duty is to maintain order in this house,
28:48and order dictates that the gentlemen do not play explorers while the servants work.
28:56Their place is here, in the palace.
28:59Yana, who was passing by with a bucket and a rag, stopped when she heard the conversation.
29:06She saw the frustration on Curro's face and decided to intervene.
29:10Excuse me, Mr Cristobal, she said in a soft but firm voice.
29:18Mr Curro is right.
29:20No one knows this land better.
29:22If there is anyone who can have a hunch, a sure instinct, it is him.
29:26You should listen to him.
29:31Cristobal gave him a withering look.
29:33And now the maids are also meddling in the management of the estate.
29:37Get back to your work, Yana, if you don't want me to find you a less pleasant one.
29:45A little later it was Lopez who approached from the kitchen, drying his hands on his apron.
29:49Mr. Butler, what Curro says is not nonsense.
29:56If he would give us permission, several of us would gladly go with him.
30:03We are more hands to search.
30:06Cristobal's refusal was even more emphatic.
30:08Enough.
30:09The decision has been made.
30:13No one is going anywhere.
30:15The search is a matter for the competent authorities.
30:20And you, Curro, I absolutely forbid you to leave the palace grounds.
30:24That's been made clear.
30:30The word forbid resounded in the lobby like a slap in the face.
30:36Curro glared at the butler, impotent fury burning in his eyes.
30:41He felt caged, tied hand and foot while his life hung in the balance.
30:45He nodded stiffly, not out of compliance, but to end the humiliating conversation.
30:57But as he walked away, his fists clenched until his knuckles turned white.
31:01He made up his mind.
31:06Cristobal could give him orders, but he could not control his conscience.
31:10If he had to act on his own, he would.
31:15He would wait until nightfall, until the guards relaxed.
31:18He would take a horse, a lantern, and a map he had drawn from memory.
31:26He was not about to stand idly by.
31:28If the world wouldn't save Angela, he would try alone.
31:35Defying Cristobal's authority was a risk, but it was a risk he was more than willing to take.
31:40Inaction was, to him, the one unforgivable sin.
31:48Amidst the general uncertainty, fear, and intrigue, a painful memory blossomed in Maria Fernandez's mind,
31:54transforming into an idea that was as risky as it was brilliant.
31:57As she scrubbed the floor of the gallery, the smell of dampness and stone brought back to her with terrifying vividness, her own ordeal.
32:07She remembered the darkness, the cold, the paralyzing fear of being trapped, kidnapped, waiting for a rescue that seemed like it would never come.
32:20She remembered the cave, stopped short, the brush falling from her hands with a thud.
32:32The cave, that natural hiding place, isolated and difficult to access, where she herself had been a prisoner.
32:39It was the perfect place to hide someone, close enough to the promise for a kidnapper familiar with the area, but far enough away and hidden that no search party would stumble upon him.
32:57Her heart began to pound.
33:00The idea was crazy, to return to that place.
33:02The mere thoughts sent shivers down her spine.
33:08It meant facing her own trauma all over again, the ghosts of her abduction.
33:16But the image of Angela's frightened face overlapped her own memories.
33:23She knew the terror she must be feeling.
33:25She knew what it was like to count the seconds in utter solitude and hopelessness.
33:32And that knowledge, that empathy born of shared suffering, became an unstoppable driving force.
33:43She left the bucket and brush where they were and ran in search of Yana and Salvador, her two pillars, the only people she trusted blindly.
33:50She found them in the laundry room, their somber faces reflecting the atmosphere of the palace.
34:01I have an idea, Maria said without preamble, her breathing ragged.
34:06I know where Angela could be.
34:11Yana and Salvador looked at her with equal parts skepticism and concern.
34:14What are you saying, Maria?
34:17How would you know?
34:19Salvador asked, approaching her and putting a hand on her shoulder.
34:26The cave, Maria said, her voice a whisper laden with meaning.
34:30The same cave where they kept me.

34:35Yana's face transformed.
34:37Disbelief gave way to intense concentration.
34:39She remembered the story of her friend's kidnapping perfectly.
34:46The logic of Maria's idea was impeccable and terrifying.
34:51No one would think of looking there.
34:55Maria continued, her eyes darting from Lana to Salvador, seeking his support.
35:01The civil guard doesn't know about her existence.
35:04It's a remote place.
35:05If someone from around here has kidnapped her.
35:09This is the first place I would take her.
35:13But Maria began to say Salvador cautiously, go back there.
35:21For you, are you sure you can do it?
35:23Her concern was palpable.
35:25She didn't want him to relive that horror.
35:27Quote.
35:27It's not about whether I can or can't, Salvador, she replied with a steely determination that surprised them both.
35:39It's about whether I have to.
35:42And if she's there alone, hurt, waiting, I can't stay here scrubbing floors while she goes through what I went through.
35:47I can't.
35:53She saw the doubt on their faces, the fear for her, but she also saw the spark of hope that her words had ignited.
35:58It was a possibility, a remote and dangerous possibility, but it was more than they had ever had.
36:07I will go tonight, Maria declared.
36:13We can't tell anyone.
36:14If we are wrong, we will look crazy.
36:19And if we are right, there is no telling who we might find there.
36:23It has to be a secret.
36:24Yana nodded slowly, her mind already working, planning.
36:31You will not go alone.
36:33We will go with you.
36:36No way, Salvador intervened protectively.
36:39It is too dangerous.
36:41I will go or the three of us will go.
36:45But you are not going in there alone, Maria.
36:49Maria felt immense relief flood through her at the feeling of his unconditional support.
36:54The idea was risky, almost suicidal, involved defying the darkness, her own fears, and a potentially dangerous kidnapper.
37:07But in the gloom of promise, where every hope seemed to be extinguished, the dangerous memory of Maria Fernandez had just ignited a small, defiant flame.
37:15A flame that would guide them to the mouth of a cave, to the heart of danger, and perhaps, just perhaps, to the salvation of Angela.
37:25The plan was drawn up.
37:31The plan was drawn up.
37:32The plan was drawn up.
