A novel set in Cordoba X century during the Umayyad dynasty. Among historical figures such as Al-Mansur (Almanzor) and the Sultana Subh or Aurora, using her Latin name, mingle fictional characters interwoven with historical facts that will make you go through loves, betrayals, emotions, and the dangers of Muslim splendor of time during the Islamic conquest of Hispania in century X. Two plots run in parallel; the first involves the attempt to rescue the power of Hisham II, overshadowed by Al-Mansur's (Almanzor) ambition, and the second in the intricacies of the famous Al-Zahara Palace Library when the discovery of a manuscript of the Koran can change the destiny of Islam and its faithful. The Sierra de Guadarrama is a mountain range of the Central System (mountain range of the center of the Iberian Peninsula) and was south of this chain of mountains that stood the Muslim domains based in Cordoba.
