Perfect for fans of Ruta Sepetys and Elizabeth Wein, this lyrical portrait of hidden identities and forbidden love is set against the harrowing backdrop of the Spanish Inquisition.<\/b>
\nIsabel Perez carries secrets with her every day.
\nAs a young woman in 1481, Trujillo, Spain, Isabel should be overjoyed that the alguacil<\/i> of the city wants to marry her. She is supposed to be flattered especially because she and her family are conversos<\/i>, Jews forced to convert to Catholicism -- leaving them low in the hierarchy of the new Spanish order. But, although she can't tell anyone, she only has eyes for Diego Altamirano, a young nobleman whose family would never let him court Isabel.
\nSo for now she sneaks out to attend poetry readings, for she longs to one day be a famous poet...another secret wish that may never come true.
\nBut Isabel's most dangerous secret is this: Though the Perezes claim to be New Christians, they still practice Judaism in the refuge of their own home. When the Spanish Inquisition reaches Trujillo determined to punish such judaizers<\/i>, Isabel finds herself in more danger than she ever could have imagined. Amidst the bloodshed and intolerance, she and Diego will have to fight for their lives in a quest to truly be free.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t
