In this fascinating historical novel, Jesús Sánchez Adalid transports us to the 8th century, to Christian Syria under the first Umayyad Caliphate. The story follows Efrén, a young man who, upon becoming aware of the loss of his culture's identity, embarks on a journey to a sanctuary in the Holy Valley. There, guarded by anchorites, he will discover a prophecy that will change his destiny and force him to face great dangers. Through an immersive narrative, the author explores historical mysteries, the tensions between Christianity and Islam, and the importance of monastic life during a period of expansion and conflict.
