Written during the final months of Grandes' life as she battled cancer, the novel is set in a near-future Spain. It begins in the wake of a global pandemic (strikingly similar to COVID-19) that has left the population fragile and fearful. Taking advantage of this collective trauma, a shadowy political entity known as the "Movimiento Ciudadano de Soluciones" (Citizens’ Movement for Solutions) rises to power.
