A deeply disturbing drama noir

Amaia Salazar (Marta Etura) returns from her maternity break to be assigned to the mysterious discovery of the numerous skeletons in a cave, a fleeting reference to which was made in the first part of the Baztan Trilogy, The Invisible Guardian. Unfortunately for her, even on this occasion her disturbed past, family circle and her mother seem to be deeply involved with the sinister case.Amaia has to balance her time as a new mother, an ace investigator and a wife, whilst battling the demons of her past life. What she discovers is a chilling revelation of her birth, family intrigue and a devastating truth about her mother that clarifies why Amaia was treated with such acrimony by her mother that almost resulted in her choking to death on one occasion. But on this occasion, Amaia's fight is far more personal, as it's not just her, but her newborn baby that's under the threat too.The Legacy of The Bones pretty much ties up the loose ends left idle in the first part of the trilogy and sheds light on some more disturbing aspects of the Salazar family. The sleepy town, overcast conditions, grey skies and the murky revelations all conjure up a heady cocktail of thrill and suspense in this yet another drama noir that causes significant discomfort for the mind.

The Legacy of the Bones

This, the second of the 'Baztán Trilogy, opens nine months after the events depicted in 'The Invisible Guardian. Police officer Amaia Salazar is in court a man accused of murdering and mutilating his step daughter commits suicide; a note baring the single word 'Tartallo' is found in his pocket. The shock causes Amaia to go into labour; she gives birth to a son, Ibai.

Four months later she returns to work and is soon investigating two cases which, on the face of it are quite different; a suicide in prison where the man wrote 'Tartallo' on a note to be passed to Amaia; and the desecration of a church where the arm bones of a baby were left on the alter. Inevitably she establishes a link. We also learn the meaning of Tartallo; a mythical being from the time when the Inquisition was persecuting those who still held on to their pagan beliefs. As the investigation progresses is becomes more personal for Amaia as she and her baby son are placed in real danger. To make matters worse the river waters are rising, threatening to flood the town.

I enjoyed 'The Invisible Guardian' so was keen to see this; if anything I enjoyed this even more. No time is wasted reintroducing key characters, so I'd certainly recommend watching 'The Invisible Guardian' first even though this features a new case. Once again there is a great atmosphere; the rain and rising waters later on only add to the sense of danger. Elements of the case are somewhat disturbing but nothing graphic is shown. As the story progresses we learn quite a lot more about Amaia's family history; things she didn't know about. The cast does a solid job, most obviously Marta Etura, who plays Amaia. Overall a solid second instalment in the trilogy; I'll certainly be watching 'Offering to the Storm' fairly soon.
