Un thriller histórico original y apasionante.

Un imperio en decadencia.

La ambición, la venganza y la religión se alían en unos crímenes sanguinarios.

Una joven dispuesta a resolverlos.

España, siglo XVII. El Imperio español se tambalea azuzado por los ataques de otras potencias europeas. Francia, Inglaterra, Holanda o Portugal ven en la decadencia de la dinastía de los Austrias la oportunidad de asaltar los territorios españoles avivando, incluso, los belicosos ánimos de zonas como Nápoles, Cataluña o Flandes. En este momento convulso, durante la regencia de la minoría de edad de Carlos II, el Hechizado, en el que la burguesía adquiere cada vez mayor poder sobre la nobleza y la Iglesia y las intrigas palaciegas debilitan a la Corona, comienzan a sucederse una serie de crímenes en la ciudad de Zafra, bastión del ducado de Feria, que amenaza con desestabilizar el orden imperante.

Los regidores del cabildo aparecen brutalmente asesinados, uno tras otro, sin motivo aparente y sin saber quién está detrás. Entretanto, una intrépida e inteligente mujer, Leonarda, que viaja desde Flandes hacia los reinos peninsulares, se encontrará en la corte con un astuto jesuita, el padre Beltrán, y juntos intentarán dar caza al asesino siguiendo unas pistas ocultas en los salmos bíblicos, donde la sangre de los mártires es ahora la sangre de los inocentes.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An original and chilling historical thriller.

An empire in decline.

Brutal crimes fueled by ambition, religion and revenge.

A young woman determined to solve the mystery.

Seventeenth-century Spain. The imperial power is under siege by its European rivals. France, England, Holland and Portugal are taking advantage of the tottering Hapsburg dynasty to strike at the monarchy's far-flung territories and fan the flames of rebellion closer to home in Naples, Catalonia and Flanders. Under the regency of the young King Charles II, "the Bewitched," the bourgeoisie are gaining more power over the nobility and the Church, and palace intrigues are chipping away at the legitimacy of the Crown. In these already tumultuous times, a series of crimes shakes the city of Zafra, the seat of the Duke of Feria, further destabilizing the imperial status quo. A mysterious assailant is murdering municipal officials one by one, with no apparent motive.

At court in Madrid, Leonarda, an intelligent and intrepid traveler from Flanders, meets the Jesuit priest Father Beltrán. Together, they search for the killer by following clues concealed in biblical psalms, where the blood of martyrs is transmuted into the blood of the innocent.

Wow.
Format: Kindle
Okay I’m usually not one for stand-alone’s I’m an avid series reader but my goodness am I so happy I read this! This story was brilliant & so absolutely mesmerizing. I loved reading about each character and their struggles as well as what helped them to move forward. The ending definitely brought tears to my eyes so hard. I truly wasn’t expecting some of what happened in this story. There is about to be a spoiler I am going to reveal so please stop reading if you don’t want the spoiler !!!! ⚠️ ⛔️ ‼️ I loved that the author didn’t do what most authors do with irredeemable male characters. I truly was hoping that Nate Jr. would be apart of the pack after the way he treated Astrea bc he truly didn’t deserve it. Though I must say you did a wonderful job or redeeming him as a person. I cried my eyes out when he walked into the story. I was truly terrified he was going to be a bad guy to the end. However you truly did him such a justice by having him realize his faults & having him redeem himself in the most wonderful way. I’m so sad that he didn’t get to hear how much his brother loved him & forgave him before dying. But again you wrote that ending so beautifully & I just can’t express how much I loved this story & how you took a different route than most authors I have read have. You are a remarkable author Cinder Blaze & I thank you generously for creating such a masterpiece.

Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
I was pleasantly surprised by this omega verse book. This 1 definitely had a few new twists And I really enjoyed reading it. The main female character was a badass and awesome. She had 1 best friend I wish we could have seen a little bit more of their friendship in this book. Her relationship with the male characters was good not to contrived or super instantaneous. And we had some fun plot twists that I didn't expect. I wish we had more of a follow up on the situation with her family her background and her mother who was a wench. I would definitely recommend this book.

Wow. Just wow. An amazing read
Format: Kindle
This book was eloquently written, or should I say the authors writing style is very eloquent? I loved the characters, and the story was quite compelling. I absolutely loved the FMC, she's a BA who doesn't take any crap & gives as good as she gets. A certain person certainly got his just desserts & then some, the earlier scenes of which were quite satisfying, had me punching the air & everything haha. All in all 20/10, great read

My opinion
Format: Kindle
Let me preface this by saying I really liked the story and the characters however, this book is in desperate need of some sort of editing. It's not misspelled words or formatting, but continuous run on sentences. Redundancies within the sentences. There were a couple of paragraphs that I had to go back and reread 3 or 4 times. Overall, I'd say it was worth the read.
