Some secrets should never be uncovered.
Cora Bruno is a modern private detective who investigates marital infidelities by delving into the psyche of her clients. Addicted to sweets and impossible loves, she is mockingly known as the “Queen of Hearts” and the “Panty and Fly Spy.” To solve cases, she relies on the help of her group of friends, with whom she meets on Mondays to analyze cases.
Cora is a great connoisseur of love but also contradictory. She has a relationship with a very masculine man that her friends know nothing about for fear they would question her feminism.
From the small cases she has faced since the beginning of her career, she has learned that many times it is the revenge and whims of women that motivate them.
But her life takes an unexpected turn when a security agency with an almost entirely male staff hires her to investigate the secret lives of CEOs, managers, politicians, and other high-class clients.
She becomes entangled in a web of deceit, infidelities, secrets, and hidden loves in a case related to the mafia, where the unfaithful husband belongs to a criminal group. While investigating, Cora discovers more than she should about the man’s double life, leading her to face death in a chilling climax.
