El tablero de la reina
Zueco, Luis
Year 1468. Castile is at a crucial moment in its history. Alfonso de Trastámara has died under suspicious circumstances and Enrique IV rises as king, forcing his half-sister Isabel, the only one who could oppose his plans, to sign peace. She accepts, because she is destined to become Isabel la Católica and knows that great games are not won on the first move. While the affairs of the Court keep the kingdom in suspense, the mysterious murder of a nobleman fortuitously unites Gadea, a young woman passionate about chess who hides a dark past, and Ruy, a chronicler who loves history and books. The dangerous race against time for both to discover the culprit is intertwined with the conspiracies and wars of the Court of Elizabeth, who under her command knew how to move like a master on the board and forever transformed the figure of the queen into the chess.
