In the war-torn Balkans, where shadows of the past refuse to fade, ten-year-old twin sisters Anna and Mia's world shatters when their father, Detective Marco, is brutally murdered by a hidden sect trafficking children's hearts. As their mother Maria lies in a mysterious coma, haunted by visions of suffering children, the twins discover they're not just seeking justice—they're fighting for their very survival.

What begins as a quest to understand their father's death evolves into a horrifying revelation: an ancient conspiracy reaches from local police stations to the highest government offices, turning innocent lives into commodities for unimaginable cruelty. In forgotten tombs across their homeland, children's bodies are found with surgically removed hearts, sold to a ruthless network that has operated in the shadows for generations.

But this story is more than just Anna and Mia's nightmare. It's also the love story that brought them into being—how Detective Marco and art curator Maria met during a mysterious art heist in Split, their romance blooming against the backdrop of Croatian coastal beauty, their love creating the family that would ultimately face unthinkable evil.

From the ancient streets of Split to the sacred grounds of Mljet National Park, from family celebrations in Skradin to the devastating night that changed everything, this is a story of love transcending death, of children forced to grow up too fast, and of the unbreakable bond between sisters who refuse to let darkness win.

Sometimes the smallest voices can silence the most powerful corruption. Sometimes love truly is the strongest weapon of all.
