Long ago, the architect Stuart Pedrell told his family that he was going to the South Seas. However, his daughter Yes has recently received a postcard from her father that comes from a far less exotic place: L'Hospitalet. Carvalho goes to Bellvitge in order to find Yes' father and to discover why he lied to his family. Pedrell never went indeed to the South Seas. He took refuge in Bellvitge where he was murdered.

The corpse of Encarna Abellán appears dismembered into pieces in a beach of Barcelona. The family of the victim, wealthy Galician landowners, gives the case to Carvalho. They don't want any scandal. The detective discovers that Encarna's visits to Barcelona to go, supposedly, to a fertility hospital coincided with the arrival of the ship Rose of Alexandria at the port of the city. Encarna met a sailor of the ship, Ginés Larios, with whom she maintained hot sexual relations. She had to break up with him in the past because she made a marriage of convenience.
