Summary:

"Un terrible levantamiento del ejército contra la reina Isabel II tiñe de sangre y muertos las calles de Madrid y el horror campa por toda la ciudad. Entre cañonazos y disparos, una bailarina llamada Leonor y Mauro, un estudiante de Medicina, se ven envueltos en un homicidio que marcará sus vidas. -- Para evitar la prisión o la muerte, Leonor se ve obligada a huir a La Habana, pero, al llegar allí, este supuesto paraíso no es lo que espera. Las plantaciones de azúcar y los ingenios esconden la tragedia de un esclavismo aún muy vivo. Y, entre los esclavos, reaparece Mauro, aunque puede que ya sea tarde para recuperar su amor. En un intento desesperado por escapar de este infierno, ambos descubrirán que el ingenio donde se hallan oculta una cruel trama de asesinatos siguiendo un rito ancestral brutalmente feroz." -- Provided by publisher.
