Felipe grew up in Cali, watching his mother clean strangers' homes while he dreamed of becoming a footballer. But when violence rips his family apart, the streets adopt him as their favorite son. Guided by Carlos, a former soldier turned underground, and seduced by Diana, a beautiful and lethal hitwoman, Felipe becomes a brilliant criminal mind cold, methodical, and visionary.
