This is ‘Una Vida Menos en Canarias’.
Luis Lacasa, a prestigious homicide inspector in Madrid, is forced to accept a transfer to the Canary Islands and adapt to everything he hates: the heat, the sand and the tourists, but above all to Naira, a charismatic inspector, a lover of her land with whom, despite their differences and rivalries, he will form a good team and at the same time, a complicity that will question his iron convictions.
The Castilian, cold and cerebral, suffers from achromatopsia, a visual dysfunction that makes him see life in shades of gray, without color, a pathology that has amplified his hermeticism. In this criminal paradise, the inspector is reunited with his daughter Jimena, a renowned chef with whom he has been estranged since the death of his wife in the accident from which he suffers after-effects.
Life in the islands will push him out of his comfort zone, to meet his daughter and to be amazed by a disturbing detail; sometimes, he perceives color in the inspector.
