Banderizos

At the end of the Middle Ages, violence and death are part of everyday life. The houses of Salazar and Velasco have been fighting for two hundred years for the commercial control of the accesses from the plateau to the Cantabrian ports. The Biscayan nobleman Lope García de Salazar fails in his attempted truce with the Castilian magnate Pedro Fernández de Velasco, who, belonging to one of the most powerful families of the peninsular kingdoms, has great influence in the court of King Juan II. The entry of Pedro Fernández and his armed escort into the Vizcaya manor unleashes intrigues among the other gentlemen, who will be forced to decide which side they support. Thus, Lope García will not only have to face the threat that looms over his surname; also to the serious differences that separate him from his wife, Juana de Butrón. And, one by one, each new confrontation will drag them into the abyss of madness ... This Banderizos is an epic in every sense of the word. With a nimble pen and narrative tension to unsuspected limits, José Manuel Aparicio takes us into a story in which honor, power, ambition, love and hate move the protagonists to the extreme of the darkest depths of the soul. Eternal feelings and values ??of the human being at a moment in History, in capital letters, impossible to forget.
