Overview

Santiago Roncagliolo da vida a una época oscura, abundante en intrigas y envuelta en los fantasmas de la superstición y la idolatría en una novela que lo confirma como un autor con una «versatilidad sin parangón para desplegar las especies novelísticas más variadas» El Comercio.

Virreinato del Perú, 1623. En una noche negra como ninguna otra, el demonio se hizo carne en la Ciudad de los Reyes cuando, en el convento de Santa Clara, una novicia dio a luz a una horripilante bestia de dos cabezas, lengua bífida y ocho extremidades. El nacimiento del engendro coincide con la aparición en la capital de una mujer de nombre Rosa, quien, se dice, es capaz de hablar con Dios y con el Diablo. Bruja o santa, se ha convertido en objetivo del Santo Oficio, que no descansará hasta revelar las verdaderas intenciones de la joven, así como su posible relación con el parto demoniaco y los terribles hechos que se desencadenarán con él.  

En una ciudad enlodada por el crimen y la corrupción, asolada por malos augurios y vientos de incertidumbre, Alonso Morales, un novato alguacil del Santo Oficio, dará testimonio de la llegada del Maligno en tanto descubre cuán difícil es distinguir los caminos que separan el bien del mal.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 

Santiago Roncagliolo brings to life a dark age, abundant in intrigue and shrouded in the ghosts of superstition and idolatry in a novel that confirms him as an author with an "unparalleled versatility to deploy the most varied novelistic species" El Comercio.

Viceroyalty of Peru, 1623. On a black night like no other, the devil became flesh in the City of Kings when, in the convent of Santa Clara, a novice gave birth to a horrifying beast with two heads, forked tongue and eight limbs. The birth of the spawn coincides with the appearance in the capital of a woman named Rosa, who, it is said, is able to speak with God and the Devil. Witch or saint, she has become the target of the Holy Office, which will not rest until it reveals the true intentions of the young woman, as well as her possible relationship with the demonic birth and the terrible events that will be unleashed with it.

In a city mired in crime and corruption, ravaged by bad omens and winds of uncertainty, Alonso Morales, a novice bailiff of the Holy Office, will bear witness to the arrival of the Evil One as he discovers how difficult it is to distinguish the paths that separate good from evil.
