In the heart of the Yucatán Peninsula, renowned chef Charlie Beaumont receives a mysterious artifact from an old acquaintance, Dr. Elena Martínez, a Mesoamerican archaeologist. The artifact, a carved stone tablet, leads them to the discovery of the legendary Cacao Codex, a forgotten manuscript detailing ancient rituals involving cacao, once revered as the "Food of the Gods" by the Maya. But this discovery quickly spirals into a deadly game of cat and mouse when they attract the attention of Los Devotos, a secretive and ruthless cult obsessed with unlocking the codex's dark powers.
As Charlie, Elena, and their guide Jorge race to protect the codex from falling into the wrong hands, they uncover a chilling connection between the codex and a series of disturbing events at a cursed plantation. There, Los Devotos are attempting to resurrect a forbidden ritual that could unleash an ancient curse on the land and its people. With time running out, Charlie and her team must decipher the codex's secrets to stop the cult before it's too late.
As the shadows of history come to life, the true power of the cacao is revealed-not just as a culinary treasure, but as a force that could change the world.
