Sobre IBD

Sara Elena flees Spain in 1492, narrowly avoiding capture by her pursuer, Don Antonio Morales, evil deputy of the Inquisition. On the eve of her departure, she marries Juan, the man she has come to love. However, she and her new groom must soon travel different paths and endure dangerous separation for a time. Juan travels west with Columbus on the voyage of discovery. Will loneliness subdue him? Will he fall victim to temptation? Sara sails eastward seeking a welcome and a home. But which country will receive her, one of the hundreds of Jews exiled by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand? Along the way she makes friends. Evil follows her as Sara builds a new life in a foreign country. Just when joy is about to overtake her, a cruel violence and heart-breaking news threaten to overwhelm her. Will her dream of a real home vanish like a wisp of smoke?
