This is basically a murder mystery, a whodunnit. In stead of a police-officer, here it's a new high school teacher who tries to unravel the strange circumstances of her highly popular predecessor's suicide. In her quest several suspects turn up, from some of the students to even her own husband, and eventually she gets more and more bewildered, doubting her own sanity and ultimately realizing that her own life is at stake. The pace is high and the story is definitely entertaining, keeping you guessing until the very end, when we at last do get a satisfying solution to all the mysteries, albeit a bit farfetched and coming out of the blue.
The acting is fine, especially Arón Piper does a great job as the troubled, ominous student Iago (he's also one of the more outstanding actors in the popular Netflix series "Elite"). Inma Cuesta as main character Raquel is as beautiful as a young Penélope Cruz, but unfortunately she has to act with every new episode more and more hysterical, what eventually got a bit on my nerves. In fact all major characters were constantly shouting and crying and yelling at each other, maybe that has something to do with the Spanish temperament, but as far as I'm concerned it could have used some tuning down. And maybe a bit of humor to counter all the heavy stuff would have been welcome too, now it was all so terribly dead serious.

Well......this was an intriguing intense thriller/drama centering on a young teachers obsession with a deceased teacher she replaced. It is full of suspense n tension with many twists n turns.
The acting was really good n the characters were full of charisma.
The ending was totally unexpected n unpredictable with a great twist.
I highly recommend this series especially if you like suspense n high drama.

An average series with good acting, average artificial drama-mystery flow, very good for practicing Spanish and roller-coaster ratings as far as the episodes are concerned. The parallel flashbacks and present events were also developed and presented in a messy way.
It lacks solid screenplay, twists and turn of events, logic and ending. Give that script to Swedish/Danish Noir masters and they would create a series that would keep you glued to the screen while biting your nails.
Arón Piper as Iago and Bárbara Lennie as Viruca stand out above the rest in this one. Liked their charisma and acting.

This series is centred on Raquel and Viruca, two literature teachers working in a small Spanish town. Raquel moves to the town with her husband, who is a local, to take up the teaching position. She didn't know that her predecessor, Viruca, had died in a presumed suicide. The more she learns the more Raquel starts to think Virura may have been murdered, possibly by somebody in her class. As the series progresses we see Raquel's story intertwined with flashbacks of the events leading to Viruca's death.
This is a somewhat mixed series; on the down side one does have to suspend one's disbelief at times... watching the series one would think there was only one class at the school and the way the students and teachers interact seems highly unlikely; it is far too casual and students get away with threatening teachers. If you can get passed those problems the central mystery is gripping and there were plenty of genuinely tense moments. As the series progresses more suspects emerge as we learn about various activities going on in the town which include affairs, sexual jealousy, shady financial dealings and drugs. The cast is solid; most noticeably Inma Cuesta and Bárbara Lennie as Raquel and Viruca. Overall I'd recommend this despite its problems; if you want a good mystery it is definitely worth watching.

How can two women be so consistently stupid. But then it's a tv show likely written, produced and directed by men who want women to be this way. Otherwise it's a pretty good thriller.
