It is 1596 in Mexico City and in a cell in the Holy Office jail a young man kneels to pray. What heresies will the inquisitors uncover? How can he protect his mother and sisters?

He is Luis de Carvajal, also known as Joseph Lumbroso. A century earlier his Jewish forbears fled the inquisitions of Spain and Portugal. He and his family have settled in the New World, but the lives they try to rebuild as converses in Mexico are just perilous. Luis’s spirit and ingenuity are tested again and again in his quest for true faith.
