The action takes place in the port of a small town on the Cantabrian coast., called Cantabreda, where dirty business happens, smuggling and retail, thanks to the dark atmosphere of its climate and the reefs that outline the rugged beach. That is why sailors alternate fishing with other more shady businesses and among them Juan de Eguía stands out., an old sea dog, along with his henchmen Verdier and Simpson, who use a small tavern next to the port as a lure for their clients and which is nothing more than a cover in which Marola displays her charms to attract sailors to drink and consume. While the women of the town led by Antigua, They rage and get angry when they see the men lost in the tavern. But a young and inexperienced Leandro falls head over heels into Marola's networks and lets himself be carried away by her charms and the dubious purposes of Juan de Eguía., despite Marola's attempts to protect him. Meanwhile, Abel, a boy who walks through the town singing songs and telling pirate stories to the sound of his accordion, He has also been bewitched by Marola's spell and is willing to defend her at all costs., confronting adults if necessary.
