Summer, 1976. Luz de Rueda returns to
her beloved Spain and
takes a job as the biographer of a famous artist. On her
first day back in Cádiz, she encounters a bewitching,
passionate young gypsy, Leandro, who immediately captures
her heart, even though relationships with his kind are
taboo.
Haunted by this forbidden love, she meets her
new employer,
the sophisticated Andrés de Calderón. Reserved yet darkly
compelling, he is totally different to Leandro – but almost
the gypsy’s double.
Both men stir exciting and
unfamiliar feelings in Luz,
although mystery and danger surround them in ways she has
still to discover. Luz must decide what she truly desires as
glistening Cádiz, with its enigmatic moon and whispering
turquoise shores, seeps back into her blood. Why is she so
drawn to the wild and magical sea gypsies? What is behind
the old fortune-teller’s sinister warnings about ‘Gemini’?
Through this maze of secrets and lies, will Luz finally find
her happiness … or her ruin?
