The author lets us relive the passions, profound hatreds, excessive envies loaded with awful lies and high ambitions, to narrate the tragic story of a queen.Toledo, 1479. Nace Juana I de Castilla, tercera hija de los Reyes Catolicos. Pese a tener una esmerada educacion, ni sus padres, Isabel I de Castilla y Fernando II de Aragon, ni su esposo Felipe de Habsburgo, por el que sentia un amor y unos celos desmedidos, la consideraron capaz de gobernar. Relegada a un segundo plano, olvidada, su padre y su esposo ejercieron la regencia hasta que su hijo Carlos I tuvo la mayoria de edad.
