Fans of the show will remember how the first two seasons focused on the siblings’ eventful journey from Spain to Brazil in the late 1940s.
They were spurred on their journey following the death of their father, but the voyage saw them uncovering secrets they never expected to.
Both women also found themselves trying to solve a murder on board the ship Bárbara de Braganza with dark forces at work putting them in danger.
The third cycle sees the story picking up a year and a half after sisters Carolina (played by Alejandra Onieva) and Eva Villanueva (Ivana Baquero) completed their journey. They are now in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires.
Season three will see their lives again at risk as they try to save the day by preventing the weapon from ever leaving the ship.
The two will face death should they fail in their mission to stop their weapon, which has the potential to claim thousands of the life if unleashed on the general population.
Along with returning cast member, there will also be some new characters coming into the fold, including Marco Pigossi and Nicolás Francella.
Fan-favourites will also be making a comeback including Jon Kortajarena, José Sacristán and Eloy Azorín.
