Publisher's summary

Un delicioso paseo por la vida cotidiana de los amos y los siervos en las elegantes mansiones coloniales y un acertado retrato de las mujeres esclavas en la Cuba española.

Cuba, 1882. Una mujer, convertida en esclava, lucha por recuperar sus raíces perdidas.

Misterio llega a La Habana en un barco negrero apresado por ingleses cuando ya la trata está prohibida. El Gobierno colonial la alquila a diferentes amos que, uno tras otro, le cambian el nombre, antes de convertirse en libertad de color y cuidadora de una niña blanca en una casona de la calle Amargura.

Pero Misterio fallece y sus amigos descubren, atónitos, que les ha dejado un encargo: ella misma exigió la presencia de cinco almas, dos de ellas desconocidas, en la apertura de su testamento y tendrán que localizarlas. La búsqueda de esas personas desvelará secretos más que sorprendentes.

Una casa en Amargura nos transporta a una Habana poblada de ricos españoles, damas criollas, gallegos, chinos, y esclavos africanos, que bulle entre archivos de copistas, estudios de síndicos y singulares domicilios de escribientes callejeros.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
