Takes us back to the dark days of the Inquisition in the midst of an ethnically diverse Spain. The author explores her own European Jewish heritage, with the additional touch of intrigue and magic, but the history is made personal and truth is a vile creature.

There’s a bit of discreet slow-burn romance in here, too.

This one is for adult readers, maybe those who have grown with Bardugo’s Grisha Universe, but more likely better received by readers not expecting anything like what this author has delivered before.
