El Angel Y La Muerte

Seville, 17th century. After fifteen years in the New World, Friar Diego de Luna returns to his hometown. He does not do so willingly: a former superior imposes a disturbing task on him, to investigate a series of seemingly ritualistic crimes. But the investigation awakens something else: a trace of his own past that forces him to confront the mystery... and himself. In a Seville of chiaroscuro, where faith coexists with corruption and power smells of sulfur and incense, Fray Diego moves between alleys, sacristies, and secret passageways. He is accompanied by a young apprentice, haunted by his ghosts. And each step brings him closer to an unexpected, dangerous truth... that is all too close. Can a man of faith coexist with doubt? How far will he dare to go to achieve justice? And what price will he have to pay for it? El ángel y la muerte (The Angel and Death) is a novel that blends crime intrigue and history with the intensity of a thriller and the richness of the best historical narrative. A fascinating immersion into the dark heart of Baroque Seville.
