Los compases del tiempo
Aparicio Vinsonneau, Bianca
A valuable watch is the guardian of a family secret that has marked the destiny of the Robles sisters since even before they were born. When the enemy bombings shake Alicante, Aurora Robles gives up her studies as a midwife to save the wounded in the Casa de Socorro while, determined to prevent fear from triumphing, she risks her life hiding refugees in the last Spanish city that resists the Advance of the National Army. With the help of a caring widow and a committed doctor, the three young sisters face the fear of losing the watchmaking workshop their father loved so much, betrayal by a heartless Phalangist officer, and a long-dormant mystery that threatens to awaken. . Only when all seems lost, Aurora will discover that love in times of war can be more heartbreaking than pain itself... But it's also her only hope.
