As local police detective Emilio begins to probe, Erin scrambles to erase evidence while juggling her parental responsibilities. Flashbacks gradually expose that “Erin Carter” is not her real name but an alias. She was once Kate Jones, an undercover police officer in England who became entangled in a failed gold‑heist undercover operation. Caught in the violence, she fled with Lena (Denise Gough) and her young daughter Harper to start anew in Spain—believing Lena died in the chaos. Lena, however, survives prison and reemerges, demanding her daughter back, uncovering that Erin has built a new family life under false pretenses goodto.comTIMEWikipedia.
The series culminates in a high-stakes showdown: Erin reconciles with Lena to rescue Harper and Jordi from Daniel Lang’s criminal network. Lena sacrifices herself to save her daughter; Erin defeats Daniel and reunites her family. The season ends with Erin encountering her former handler, DI Armstrong, hinting at potential future missions—even though no season 2 is confirmed yet TIMEgoodto.comWikipedia.
Brimming with car chases, fight scenes, and urban intrigue, the show balances action and maternal drama. Despite frequent plot holes and an over-the-top protagonist, Erin’s fierce portrayal and explosive pacing deliver a guilty‑pleasure watch. While some viewers decried the narrative’s logic, others described it as entertaining “candy.” The chemistry between Erin and young Harper (independent, curious, and occasionally traumatized) adds emotional weight to the series’ suspenseful turns
