ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

MADRID, 1599. Isabel, a fifteen-year-old girl, loses her mother and then discovers the truth that had always been kept from her: her father is Miguel de Cervantes, the famous soldier and poet... whom she has never met. From then on, she is forced to move out of her home, pretend to be a maid so as not to reveal her illegitimate status, and learn to deal with a jealous cousin and trust her aunts, all while waiting for the return of that absent father.

Nearby, in Esquivias, Catalina, Cervantes' devoted wife, is also waiting for her husband, unaware that a young woman has secretly entered her family's history. While Cervantes writes his masterpiece, Isabel grows up, falls in love, makes mistakes, and uncovers secrets that could destroy everything.

In a society that denies her even a surname, she must decide who she wants to be... and what she is willing to sacrifice to forge her own destiny.

With a vibrant voice and meticulous historical detail, Martha B tiz invites us to experience the Golden Age through the eyes of an unforgettable young woman.
