Shadows of a Secret

A story of courage, love and loyalty. In this action-packed, mysterious romance, Sister Victoria opens the door of time and invites us to enter 14th century Spain. In the region of Castile, south of Madrid, amidst criminal flames, the beautiful young Raquel is torn from her home and begins a mad escape to save her own life. Don Fernando - a powerful and enigmatic nobleman - embarks on a fierce persecution, while controlling the lords of those lands with cunning manipulations, carrying out a true witch hunt. Fleeing relentlessly, Raquel does not understand what that man has against her. What is the reason for so much hostility? Hatred and violence leave their marks. However, divine mercy is stronger: on top of a hill, she finds a miracle, a door to the light. Through the pages of this book, we are invited to reflect on the harmful effects of resentment and the desire for revenge, which sicken souls and destroy lives, bringing painful consequences for those who nurture them. In the face of life, firm faith in God will always be a sure source of hope and strength for the spirit. Only love would free her from those marks.
