Por ello, el general intentara recuperar unos papeles comprometedores que se encuentran escondidos en el Peru y que ponen en riesgo su persona, su prestigio y su patrimonio. Con un admirable dominio del suspense, Jorge Eduardo Benavides construye una gran novela de intriga que tiene como epicentro el convento de Santa Catalina, en Arequipa, cuyos muros custodian importantes documentos que pueden comprometer la vida de todos aquellos que aparecen en ellos. Solo cuando el mal irrumpe en las tranquilas estancias del convento se hara indispensable mantener a salvo los secretos guardados durante siglos.

A?ngel Basanta, portavoz del jurado del XXV Premio Torrente Ballester La critica ha dicho. La novela alterna el retrato de la corte madrilena con el microcosmos cerrado del convento de Santa Catalina, en Arequipa, donde se juega, de modo secreto, la gran partida del poder. El libro despliega en este ambito todas sus armas artisticas y es gobernado no por la Historia, sino por la fantasia, el misterio y la aventura.Arturo Garcia Ramos, ABC CULTURAL ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 1814. After demonstrating his loyalty to Fernando by fighting against the pro-independence colonists in the Americas, General Goyeneche is called to the Spanish Court to help the monarchy fight the liberal movement that is trying to reinstate the Constitution of Cadiz.
