Historical fiction set in Spain during the time of the Inquisition. Loma and her family are Sephardic Jews of considerable stature in the aljama where they live. Her grandfather Belo even has audiences with King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, working favor for the Jews of Spain. Although Loma is of an age when she would be betrothed, Belo decides he wants her to accompany him on his business travels instead. On these journeys, Loma is exposed to the challenges the Jews face, meets the royals, and witnesses Belo's adroit business dealings. She still dreams of getting married and having children but Belo doesn't seem to want that for her. But when he suffers several strokes and the date of the expulsion of the Jews nears, Loma must make important decisions for the sake of the family without Belo to guide her. Atmospheric and vivid but far too ambitious reading for any kids I know! ( )
