1475. In Vetonia, a city in Castille, in times of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, lives Caterina, a young countess, recently widowed. She resides in her uncle's palace, the Marquee of Narros, and intends to set an important guild of tailors and embroiders. To do so, she sends Guillén, her lover, to Valencia, in order to find the best crafters. Guillén brings back Juana, a promising embroideress that will fill the palace walls with love, suspense, drama, and secrets, and will disrupt Caterina's quiet life.

Written and documented with exquisite care, The Embroideress is a historical novel like no other.
