Corona de sangre

Corona de sangre

Corral, José Luis

When Alfonso XI, King of Castile and León, dies from the black plague during the siege of Gibraltar, the kingdom is orphaned, with threatened borders and devastated crops. It will be then that his son Pedro, a fifteen-year-old with a great thirst for power, who has lived apart and marginalized from the court, will be crowned king. Pushed by the desire for revenge of his mother, María de Portugal, and threatened by the vile look of his bastard brother, Enrique de Trastámara, Pedro I will cause a wave of violence, hatred and massacres that would determine the destiny of the kingdoms of Castile and Leon, Portugal and Granada and the Crown of Aragon. His reign would continue the betrayals, alliances and wars, unleashed by envy, forbidden love, sex and hidden interests that crossed the palace walls and forever marked this time as one of the bloodiest in our history.
