In OFFERING TO THE STORM, a man smothers his baby to death with a pillow in the crib, and then later tries to steal the body from the casket before being apprehended. Detective Chief Amaia Salazar (Marta Etura) begins the investigation, and soon, the man, after telling Salazar that he must complete the job, dies in prison, followed by a series of mysterious and gruesome murders. While trying to get to the bottom of this, Salazar continues to postpone, to the chagrin of family, the funeral of her mother, and while her husband and daughter are in America to take care of his ailing father, she also begins an affair with the judge who can be of the most help in allowing her to investigate the numerous infanticides that have happened in the area in recent years. These infant "sacrifices" are believed by some to be the work of an ancient demon known as Inguma, but continued investigation reveals it to be the work of a death cult dating back to the 1970s, whose hippie followers are now wealthy and powerful. As the deaths continue, Salazar must find out once and for all who, or what, is behind these brutal killings.
