About this product
Product Information
Beneath the majestic towers of the Alhambra, Granada s cobbled streets resonate with music and secrets. Sonia Cameron knows nothing of the city s shocking past; she is here to dance. But in a quiet cafe, a chance conversation and an intriguing collection of old photographs draw her into the extraordinary tale of Spain s devastating civil war. Seventy years earlier, the cafe is home to the close-knit Ramirez family. In 1936, an army coup led by Franco shatters the country s fragile peace, and in the heart of Granada the family witnesses the worst atrocities of conflict. Divided by politics and tragedy, everyone must take a side, fighting a personal battle as Spain rips itself apart.Product Identifiers

A lot of historical background but, for me, a page turner
This book, set during the Spanish civil war, is an accurately researched history but set around a fictional family. Although I knew about the horrors of this war I learned so much more. If you like history made interesting and very readable you will enjoy this book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
