Néboa is a Spanish mystery-thriller television series starring Emma Suárez and Isabel Naveira.

Premise

[edit]

The story is set in Néboa, a fictional island off the coast of Galicia.[1] The corpse of a teenager appears during the first night of the entroido carnival in Néboa.[2] The murder mimics the pattern of past killings that occurred in 1919 and 1989, both of which sparked a serial killing row with multiple deaths.[2] Locals believe the killer is the Urco, a wolf headed man from the folk stories.[2][1] Three Guardia Civil agents, Mónica Ortiz, Carmela Souto and Lieutenant Ferro try to solve the mystery and avoid another serial killing rampage.[3][4]
