What you need to know before your trail

After being the victim of a savage attack, Laura loses her memory. Only Carlos, the man she has fallen in love with, can help her try and remember her mysterious past. But who is she really and what happened to  her? One evening, they plan to have a  romantic dinner, but Carlos is nowhere to be found  – he seems to have vanished without a trace!

Then Laura gets a call – the voice says that if she wants to see her partner alive again, she will have to carry out a daring heist –  steal the relics of the Apostle in the cathedral of Santiago.

What do you plan to do, if you can’t remember what you’ve done?

Travel Guide

Santiago

The cathedral in the novel is the key to the story and so features heavily.

It is the reputed burial place of Saint James the Great, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. It is also among the remaining churches in the world built over the tomb of an apostle. The others are St Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City, St Thomas Cathedral Basilica in Chennai, India and Basilica of St. John in Izmir, Turkey.

Camino de Santiago

The Camino is a network of pilgrims’ ways or pilgrimages leading to the shrine of the apostle James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. Tradition holds that the remains of the apostle are buried here.
