The case
Rías Baixas, Galicia. At the Pazo de Souto, a granite manor among the albariño vineyards, the Souto family celebrates the end of the harvest. At midnight, the lights go out: the meiga sets the queimada aflame and recites the conxuro against evil spirits. When the lights come back, Iago, the heir, raises his cup. At 00:12, he collapses.
Eight guests, eight secrets. A mother secretly selling the estate, a fiancée in love with someone else, a sailor waiting for his money, a meiga who knows the plants that stop the heart. Everyone plays a character, lies, and hunts for the killer.
The clues look real: a pharmacy receipt, a phone conversation, two voicemails to play with a QR code, a wine-stained letter, photos taken during the party. To make the others talk, there are the "Truth question" cards.
