Una apasionante aventura protagonizada por una joven que huye del manto protector de su familia para descifrar la tr???gica muerte de su abuela y su propio lugar en el mundo. Atormentada entre el inexplicable suicidio de su abuela y el trastorno del s???ndrome de Di???genes que sufre su madre, quien ha convertido su mansi???n en un vertedero, Sof???a decide pedirle ayuda a su padre para poder terminar sus estudios en un internado fuera del pa???s. Sof???a carga con el estigma de ser una muchacha distinta, sumamente inteligente, con habilidad para las matem???ticas y para no dejar preguntas sin hacer. Sin embargo, ni esa capacidad, ni todo el dinero de su familia, la ayudan a resolver el enigma de su propia vida en un Puerto Rico donde con m???s frecuencia desaparecen mujeres j???venes. Escapar parece ser para Sof???a la ???nica salida. Y en esa huida, mientras se cierne una terrible tormenta sobre la isla, conocer??? a las hermanas Flores, a Clara, al "maestro", el siniestro l???der de una secta, y a los hermanos Javier y Nicole, una exreligiosa que busca resolver el misterio de esas desapariciones. Acosada desde el inicio de su aventura por una invisible y oscura presencia, su participaci???n en un misterioso ritual la llevar??? a buscar la verdad y a descubrir que las respuestas estaban m???s cerca de lo que jam???s imagin???. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A passionate adventure following a young woman who leaves the protective mantle of her home to decipher the tragic death of her grandmother, and her place in the world. Tormented by the unexplainable suicide of her grandmother and her mother's hoarding problem (which has turned their house into a pigsty) Sof???a seeks her father's help to attend boarding school outside of her native Puerto Rico. She carries the stigma of being different--a supremely intelligent girl with an uncanny ability for math and for not leaving any unanswered questions. But neither all her abilities nor her family's money can help her solve the enigma of her own life in the island, where young women keep disappearing with alarming frequency. Escaping seems to be the only solution to her problems. And in that escape, while a powerful storm builds in the island, she will meet the Flores sisters, as well as Clara, the "teacher" -- the sinister leader of a mysterious cult -- and Nicole, a former nun that is trying to solve the mystery of the disappearing girls. Stalked by an invisible and dark presence, Sof???a's forced participation in a gory ritual will lead her to seek the truth and to discover the answers to all her questions were a lot closer than she could have ever imagined.
