«El Sherlock Holmes del Renacimiento» (El Confidencial)
En el crudo diciembre de 1905, Enrique Maldonado, propietario de las tierras del municipio salamantino de Boada y cacique local, aparece brutalmente apuñalado en las afueras del pueblo. Los vecinos son los principales sospechosos de haberle dado muerte y Unamuno, que escribió un artículo incendiario para denunciar las condiciones de vida de los campesinos boadenses, decide investigar el crimen con la ayuda de Manuel Rivera, abogado defensor de los detenidos, y Teresa Maragall, una misteriosa anarquista.
Conforme vayan apareciendo nuevos cadáveres, el perfil público de Unamuno como intelectual de renombre y polémico rector de la Universidad de Salamanca se verá dividido entre sus valedores y sus detractores, y su carácter indomable se topará con el poder y sus insidias, dificultando las pesquisas y poniendo en peligro muchas vidas, entre ellas la suya.
