The Question That Consumed Three Seasons
¿Quién mató a Sara? It's not just the title—it's the obsession.
I binged all three seasons of Who Killed Sara? over a single weekend, and I still have trust issues. This show changes everything you think you know about every five episodes. Characters you thought were victims turn out to be villains. Villains turn out to be victims. And Sara herself... Sara becomes increasingly complicated the more we learn about her.
The premise is deceptively simple: Álex Guzmán was imprisoned for 18 years for his sister Sara's murder. He knows he didn't do it. He knows his girlfriend's wealthy family framed him. Now he's out, and he wants revenge.
But revenge requires truth. And the truth about Sara's death is a matryoshka doll of secrets.
Layer one: The Lazcano family covered up what really happened on that parasailing trip. Layer two: Sara was having an affair that threatened to expose family secrets. Layer three: Sara was involved with a shadowy organization conducting experiments. Layer four: Sara's own mental state and choices played a role in her fate.
By the end of Season 3, the question "Who killed Sara?" has an answer—but it's not a name. It's an understanding that Sara's death resulted from a perfect storm of secrets, lies, and desperate people protecting themselves.
The real killer in Who Killed Sara? is the culture of silence that lets powerful families get away with anything.
