Imagine una isla diminuta en medio del océano, a desmano de todo, pero que, por ser el último atraque antes de la aventura americana, llegó a convertirse durante un par de siglos en el tercer puerto en importancia del imperio español, detrás de Amberes y Sevilla. A esa tenue cagada de mosca en los mapas arribó gentes de todos los pelajes y alcurnias, desde buscavidas y huidos de la justicia hasta marqueses y adinerados comerciantes. Llegaron, por ejemplo, familias enteras de irlandeses, huyendo de las persecuciones religiosas, y también apellidos de postín del norte europeo, flamencos y normandos, en busca de los beneficios de las plantaciones azucareras. Todos dejaron su impronta, porque todos llegaron con las mentalidades de los exaltados que persiguen la libertad. Algunos la encontraron, otros tuvieron que seguir buscando allende los mares. Y todos se enamoraron: unos de amores lisonjeros y frugales que duraban lo que se demora una estiba; otros, de pasiones juveniles que les hicieron renunciar a su viejos sueños de tierras nuevas.
Y otros, de amores imposibles.
En el corazón de la trama de Cuando venga el rey, late esta clase de amor.
Y sus consecuencias.

SINOPSIS
El rey llegaba en el momento justo, a punto ya de que desaparecieran para siempre. Como dijo el alcalde, la visita del monarca significaba para la isla el evento más importante desde que entraron a formar parte de la historia de los pueblos cultos. Pero la aparición del cuerpo sin vida del doctor Mauricio Santos Padrón flotando en la bahía destaparía las bambalinas de la historia, allí donde habitan las vidas y los anhelos de las personas que interpretan el drama.¿Quién o quiénes asesinaron al médico ilustre de una cuchillada atroz? ¿Qué pecado habían cometido para pasar de idílico jardín de las Hespérides a desolado aduar rifeño?Después de cuatrocientos años siendo el centro del mundo, de pronto el alisio dejó de soplar y la historia se olvidó de ellos. Ahora, navegando a la deriva, sólo la anunciada visita del rey y su comitiva puede impedir que la isla desaparezca mar adentro. Pero en una tierra de exaltados, las pasiones rigen los destinos, y el amor, los celos, la envidia y la muerte convertirán el porvenir en una incógnita."Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
