Premise


The fiction follows the Guerrero, a family based in Lavapiés controlling an extensive criminal network, using the furniture trade as cover. The patriarch of the family, the widowed Abraham Guerrero, built a criminal empire in El Rastro. The three sons of Abraham, Daniel, Tomás, and Clemente have received a backward and toxic upbringing, heirs to a crumbling male-dominant world eating itself up. The three brothers struggle for control of the criminal business.
The bulk of the story has Madrid as background.
