Spanish Cavalier

Following his father's death, young Lucius Lepine travels to Spain to begin a new life as a clerk in Seville. But when his colleague Don Aguilera fails to appear at the counting house one morning, Lucius discovers that his friend has vanished into the night, spirited away by forces unknown. Rumors swirl through the streets, whispers of arrest, of secret trials, of dungeons beneath the Inquisition's shadow. Determined to uncover the truth, Lucius must navigate a city where trust is scarce and danger lurks in every shadow. What begins as a missing person's inquiry becomes a test of courage, faith, and loyalty in a land where a man's beliefs can cost him everything. Set against the turbulence of Spain's turbulent past, this is a tale of one young Englishman who must choose between safety and solidarity when darkness falls on his friend.
