What to expect
‘Allende is a master storyteller at the peak of her powers’ Los Angeles Times
Born into poverty, seamstress Inés Suárez embodies the same restless hope and opportunism that fuels her nation’s conquest of the Americas.
Learning that her shiftless husband has vanished, Inés uses his disappearance to embark on her own adventure to the other side of the world. It is a journey will lead her to Pedro de Valdivia – a conquistador who becomes the first royal governor of Chile – and to a love that not only changes her life but the course of history.
