"Do women have a soul?" That is how it all started, with that question. In the opulent Valencia of the 15th century, a young woman takes on the fight to preserve her parents' legacy: a hospital famous for attending to the poor. Hounded by unjust laws and the de facto powers in the city, soon she understands that she is facing something much more dangerous than lack of understanding or intolerance. A lethal shadow is drifting unpunished throughout the city, ready to propagate death among any who dare to defy it, especially those who know the true secrets of the hospital and of the extraordinary woman who founded it. An ambitious and thrilling novel, full of action and intrigue, which speaks to us about the strength of women whose only sin was to defend their dignity, in a world that considered them morally defective ... beings without a soul.
