In thirteenth-century Toledo, Francisca, a fifteen-year-old orphan with a talent for drawing, is an apprentice in the royal scriptorium of Alfonso X the Wise. The threat of entering a convent crosses with a plot of conspiracies and betrayals in a city of coexistence among Christians, Jews, and Muslims; to escape it she must use her wits, leave behind her prejudices, and trust new and old friends. A mystery story set in the medieval Toledo of the three cultures.
