The story unfolds against the backdrop of colonial Mexico during the time of the Inquisition, intricately weaving the lives and fates of its characters into the religious and societal upheaval of the period. The novel hints at themes of love, power, and faith as it introduces us to key characters, including Doña Beatriz, a passionate noblewoman committed to the foundation of a convent, and Don Fernando de Quesada, the Oidor entangled in her fate. The opening of the work engages readers with a vivid description of Mexico City on the night of July 3, 1615. As the city sleeps under a gentle rain, a secretive procession emerges from the archbishop's palace, led by a cloaked figure carrying a lantern. The unfolding events depict preparations for a clandestine ritual at a house that seems essential to the development of the convent envisioned by Doña Beatriz. Simultaneously, there are whispers of danger as plots against Don Fernando's life surface, revealing the intense personal and political struggles at play. As various characters converge in this dark and mysterious atmosphere, the stage is set for conflict and intrigue that is to come.
