Nobel Prize laureate Mario Vargas LlosaFrom a renowned prizewinning Argentinian author comes a historical novel based on the true story of one mans faith, spirit, and resistance during the Spanish Inquisition in Latin America.Born in sixteenthcentury Argentina, Francisco Maldonado da Silva is nine years old when he sees his father, Don Diego, arrested one harrowing afternoon because of his beliefs. Raised in a family practicing its Jewish faith in secret under the condemning eyes of the Spanish Inquisition, Francisco embarks on a personal quest that will challenge, enlighten, and forever change him.He completes his education in a monastery; he reads the Bible; he dreams of reparation; he dedicates his life to science, developing a humanistic approach and becoming one of the first accredited medical doctors in Latin America; and most of all, he longs to reconnect with his father in Lima, Per, the City of Kings.So begins Franciscos epic journey to fight for his true faith, to embrace his past, and to draw from his fathers indomitable strength in the face of unimaginable persecution. But the arm of the Holy Inquisition is an intractable one. As it reaches for Francisco, he sheds his mask to defend his freedom. Against seemingly insurmountable odds, he will prove that while the body can be broken, the spirit fights back, endures, and survives.
