2017ril. Bellissima e sensibile nel fulgore dei suoi vent'anni, Dalia potrebbe possedere il mondo. Invece, la sua fiducia nell'umanità è già gravemente compromessa: abbandonata dal padre prima ancora di nascere, è stata cresciuta dalla madre in completa solitudine, rotta soltanto dalla relazione con un uomo violento, delle cui aggressioni Dalia è stata testimone fin da piccola. Tormentata da incubi ricorrenti e con l'anima annerita dai lividi, la ragazza cova un desiderio inesprimibile, una sete di riscatto e vendetta che la brillante carriera di studentessa in medicina non basta a placare. Il volontariato in un centro per donne vittime di violenza le conferma ogni giorno quanto gli uomini possano macchiarsi di atrocità rimanendo impuniti. Finché il gelo che ha dentro finalmente deflagra, e decide di vendicare, una per una, tutte le donne abusate che ha incontrato sulla propria strada, a cominciare dalla madre. Si trasforma così in un angelo sterminatore che sceglie le sue prede con metodo e somministra loro l'estremo castigo con un calcolo e una freddezza che sfidano l'ingegno dei poliziotti incaricati di indagare sugli omicidi. E mentre la Dalia serial killer agisce indisturbata, la Dalia timida studentessa si imbatte in Alessandro, laureando in filosofia e barman introverso, che la corteggia con gesti premurosi e pensieri gentili. Tra i due si instaura una connessione profonda fatta di silenzi, slanci trattenuti, ferite condivise, che schiude una crepa nella corazza che Dalia si è cucita addosso per mettersi al riparo dall'amore. Ma ciò che non immaginerebbe mai è che, proprio adesso, dal suo passato possa tornare a braccarla il più spaventoso degli incubi. Marina Di Guardo esplora il lato oscuro di un'anima corrotta, costruendo un thriller travolgente che è pura tragedia greca sull'ineluttabilità del male.
