About the Book

En la opulenta Valencia del siglo XV, una joven lucha por preservar el legado de sus padres: un hospital célebre por atender a los más desposeídos.
Una novela apasionante, llena de acción e intriga, que retrata el valor de unas mujeres cuyo único pecado fue defender su dignidad en un mundo que las consideraba seres moralmente defectuosos... Seres sin alma.

Valencia, 1486. Tras la muerte de sus padres en extrañas circunstancias, la joven Irene Bellvent se pone al frente de En Sorell, el hospital al que se familia ha dedicado la vida, con la intención de seguir atendiendo a los más desfavorecidos de la ciudad. Las leyes, sin embargo, conspiran en su contra: como mujer, se la considera incompleta e incapaz de hacer nada por sí sola, de modo que está obligada a encontrar un marido para poder llevar adelante sus planes.

Pero la cortedad de miras y la misoginia imperantes no son los únicos problemas a los que Irene deberá enfrentarse. Ni tampoco las deudas ingentes que acosan al hospital. Su principal obstáculo es el peligro que se cierne en torno a su amado En Sorell, una amenaza ominosa y letal decidida a destruir el lugar y a sus moradores. El fruto de una venganza cuyos orígenes se remontan a muchos años atrás... a una misteriosa academia femenina que defendía conceptos tan revolucionarios como la dignidad de la mujer y su igualdad moral e intelectual.

Como ya demostrara en Las horas oscuras, Juan Francisco Ferrándiz posee un pulso admirable y una capacidad sobresaliente para crear atmósferas opresivas y personajes brillantes, portadores de luz en épocas sombrías.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Do women have a soul?" That is how it all started, with that question. In the opulent Valencia of the 15th century, a young woman takes on the fight to preserve her parents' legacy: a hospital famous for attending to the poor. Hounded by unjust laws and the de facto powers in the city, soon she understands that she is facing something much more dangerous than lack of understanding or intolerance. A lethal shadow is drifting unpunished throughout the city, ready to propagate death among any who dare to defy it, especially those who know the true secrets of the hospital and of the extraordinary woman who founded it. An ambitious and thrilling novel, full of action and intrigue, which speaks to us about the strength of women whose only sin was to defend their dignity, in a world that considered them morally defective ... beings without a soul.
