Then, Far Suau himself dies in a strange automobile accident just when he has renewed his intent to get to the bottom of the crime.Journalists David Cox and Damian Nabot only set out to report the details of the investigation of the theft of Juan Peron's hands, but as they dug into the history of Argentina and the power brokers responsible for it they uncovered a surprising thread that led to a notorious figure whose background in politics, crime and the occult revealed a possible solution to the decades-old mystery.

Foster parent Paul Holloway is murdered, and the “relatives” the TV crew introduces are more than odd. Then, when the producer’s assistant is killed, too, it’s clear there’s some deadly going on—and the kids are the targets.
