Shadows and Spells in 16th Century Madrid
In the kitchen of Casa Ordono, Luzia Cotado's life changes forever when she whispers a spell to repair burnt bread: "Aboltar kazal, aboltar mazal." A simple servant girl sleeping on the cellar floor, Luzia occasionally uses small magics taught by her aunt Hualit to ease her harsh existence. When her mistress Dona Valentina discovers these abilities, Luzia becomes Madrid's unexpected sensation, performing "milagritos" (little miracles) for nobles who flock to witness her talents. But this newfound attention carries deadly risk. As a conversa-a Christian converted from Judaism-Luzia's magical abilities could attract the Inquisition's scrutiny. When a red-bearded informer witnesses her more spectacular magic, she flees to her aunt, only to encounter Victor de Paredes, known as Madrid's luckiest man. He offers Luzia a tantalizing proposition: a new identity free from her Jewish ancestry, proper magical training, and entry into a secret tournament of magic users being organized for the king. With ambition burning in her heart and few alternatives, Luzia accepts his offer. "I would rather be powerful," she thinks, stepping onto a path that will challenge everything she understands about magic, identity, and freedom in a world where the wrong heritage or abilities can lead straight to the stake.
