The(ir) Blurb...

The web series tells the story of delegate Giovanna Torres, and the mysterious Maya Manoela Collins. Giovanna is a determined police chief in Itaipava who dreams of succeeding in her police career. When the opportunity to work in Rio de Janeiro arises, she goes to celebrate at a bar with friends and meets Maya, to whom she feels attracted right away. The attraction is reciprocal and both end up getting involved in a night full of pleasurable moments. Weeks later, after going to Rio with her best friend Larissa and taking on a big case involving million-dollar thefts at the Enterprise company, Giovanna discovers that Maya is, in fact, the wife of big businessman Christopher Collins. Then a dangerous game begins, full of traps. A dispute of power, money and desire. In this game, only one will fall. Who will have the best strategy? Who will give Checkmate? Place your bets, the game will begin.
