Nueva York, 1972. Catherine Velis, aficionada a las matematicas y al ajedrez, trabaja en una auditoria como experta en informatica. La firma la destina a Argelia, pero, antes de partir, una vidente le lee las lineas de la mano y le advierte de que un grave peligro se cierne sobre ella. Poco despues, un marchante de antiguedades hace a Cat una misteriosa oferta: un cliente suyo esta intentando reunir las piezas de un antiguo juego de ajedrez que presuntamente se encuentra en Argelia. Si Cat le consigue esas piezas, obtendra a cambio una generosa recompensa. Sur de Francia, 1790. Mireille de Remy y su prima Valentine son dos novicias de la abadia de Montglane. Francia arde en las llamas de la revolucion que, entre otros proyectos, pretende aniquilar a la Iglesia y hacerse con sus tesoros. Enterradas desde hace mil anos bajo el suelo de la abadia se encuentran las piezas de un ajedrez legendario, que pertenecio a Carlomagno. Quien consiga reunir dichas piezas adquirira un poder ilimitado. Y para mantenerlas fuera del alcance de quienes pudieran abusar de el, Mireille y Valentine deberan repartirlas por todos los confines del mundo. -Una de las pocas narradoras contemporaneas que supo salpicar sus obras de las dosis justas de esoterismo, historia oculta y misterio, mucho antes de que esos ingredientes fueran mezclados en otros cocteles notables.- Javier Sierra"
