Una ambiciosa saga familiar de amores apasionados, secretos inconfesables y misterios del pasado, con unos personajes cuyas vidas se ven marcadas, a lo largo de tres generaciones, por un antiguo pacto entre musulmanes y cristianos.
El día de Todos los Santos de 1755, un terremoto sacude la ciudad; también precipita el destino de doña Julia López de Haro: tras sobrevivir al desastre, la bella viuda, dueña de la imprenta de más renombre de Sevilla, decide dar un giro a su existencia, hace caso a sus sentimientos y, horas más tarde, se entrega a León de Montenegro, un joven proveniente de Malta y empleado en su negocio. Este insondable hombre será el gran amor de su vida, aunque doña Julia ignora que es depositario de una secreta y peligrosa misión que, tras contraer matrimonio, traspasará a su descendencia.
Así se inicia la apasionante peripecia de tres generaciones unidas por una misteriosa herencia: honrar un antiguo pacto entre cristianos y musulmanes que debe culminar en la celebración de una partida de ajedrez que, tras seis siglos de espera, sigue pendiente y que fuerzas muy poderosas tienen empeño en evitar que se lleve a cabo.
Reseña:
