Kraken: The Black Book of Hours

Former inspector Kraken (Alejo Sauras) receives a chilling threat: his mother, whom he presumed dead for decades, is alive and has been kidnapped. To free her, he must find a priceless book. Simultaneously, a sophisticated murder in a Madrid bookstore sets off police alarms, connecting both cases.

With time against him, new evidence points to a link between the murders of booksellers in Vitoria and Madrid. Kraken resumes the investigation and follows the clues to Madrid, where the victims' connection to the mythical Black Book and the enigmatic name of Ítaca Expósito begins to emerge.

With Caliban's countdown suffocating his every step, Kraken and Esti pursue the main suspect in the Vitoria crime. As time runs out to save his alleged mother, a discovery in Madrid shatters everything Kraken thought he knew.

Desperate for answers, Kraken decides to break all police rules. His clandestine break-in at an apartment in the capital will lead to a discovery so shocking that it will paralyze the investigation.

As he retraces Ítaca Expósito's movements, Kraken uncovers a hidden plan revolving around the coveted Black Book of Hours and a key location in Madrid. There, among the most important cultural legacies, he will come dangerously close to his target…

The net closes in on Caliban, and the masks begin to fall. Kraken uncovers the definitive connection between the secretive circle of the Egerias and the dark motives that led to his mother's abandonment forty years ago. When the full story of Ítaca Expósito comes to light, he is forced to confront a truth far more personal and complex than he ever imagined.
