In La Galera prison, in A Coruña, in 1863, Sisca, an imprisoned teenager, crosses paths with Concepción Arenal, a prison visitor, and with Juana de Vega. The novel, narrated in multiple voices, pits Sisca's resistance against Arenal's good intentions and champions the power of reading to give hope to marginalized women.
