Overview

Esteban, known as “La Sombra,” is driven by one purpose: to avenge the murder of his mother. As he begins his search for answers, he discovers others who have also lost loved ones to a mysterious killer. United by grief and rage, they join forces to uncover the truth behind the growing list of victims. Evidence points directly at La Sombra. The murders were committed with dragon-marked bullets — ammunition uniquely linked to him — part of a calculated scheme designed to frame him as the killer. Refusing to surrender to the accusations, La Sombra pieces together the clues one by one. As the puzzle slowly comes together, he uncovers a devastating truth: the real murderer is someone far closer than he ever imagined.
