Summary

Una gran traición, una aventura a través de los siglos y un misterio que lucha por salir a la luz.

NADA ES COMO NOS HABÍAN CONTADO

LA MAYOR TRAICIÓN DE LA HISTORIA ESTÁ A PUNTO DE SER DESVELADA

Mientras trabaja en una iglesia antigua en Donostia, la restauradora de arte, Marta Arbide encuentra un manuscrito oculto tras un falso muro durante siglos. Se trata del diario de Jean de la Croix, un monje medieval a quien, mil años atrás, le fue encomendada una misión: llevar una misteriosa reliquia hasta un escondite seguro y huir de los sicarios que, por orden del papa Inocencio III, le perseguían para arrebatársela.

Intrigada por el contenido del diario, la restauradora decide investigar la historia de Jean y comprobar por sí misma si el contenido de esos viejos papeles es cierto. De ser así, podría cambiar por completo la historia de la Iglesia tal y como nos ha sido contada. Para ello tendrá la ayuda de Iñigo Etxarri, un sacerdote con un oscuro pasado.

Juntos emprenderán un recorrido en busca de pistas que hayan resistido el paso del tiempo, que les llevará desde las abadías y bosques del sur de Francia hasta los monasterios de San Millán y Santo Domingo de la Calzada y los vestigios de la antigua Sanctus Sebastianus.

¿Por qué huía Jean? ¿Cuál era el poder del extraño objeto que llevaba consigo? La clave de todo podría residir en un secreto celosamente guardado desde el año 33 de nuestra era, pocas horas antes de la muerte de Jesucristo, cuando ocurrió algo que sus apóstoles decidieron ocultar...

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"A huge betrayal, an adventure through the centuries, and a mystery that struggles to come to light.
 
NOTHING IS AS THEY HAD TOLD US
 
THE GREATEST BETRAYAL IN HISTORY IS ABOUT TO BE REVEALED
 
While working in an ancient church in Donostia, art restorer, Marta Arbide, finds a manuscript that's been hidden behind a false wall for centuries. It's the diary of Jean de la Croix, a medieval monk who, a thousand years ago, was given a mission: take a mysterious relic to a safe hiding place and flee from the hit men who, by order of Pope Innocent III, were chasing him to steal it.
 
Intrigued by the contents of the diary, the restorer decides to investigate Jean's history and find out for herself if the contents of those old papers are true. In which case, it could completely change the history of the Church as it's been told to us. To do this she will have the help of Iñigo Etxarri, a priest with a dark past.
 
Together they will embark on a journey in search of clues that have stood the test of time, which will take them from the abbeys and forests of south France to the monasteries of San Millán and Santo Domingo de la Calzada and the vestiges of ancient Sanctus Sebastianus.
 
Why was Jean running away? What power did the strange object have that he carried with him? The key to everything could reside in a secret jealously guarded since the year 33 of our era, just hours after the death of Jesus Christ, when something happened that his apostles decided to conceal...
