Héroe Traidor, El

In The Traitor Hero, Antonio Torremocha transports us to the convulsive Europe of the 16th century to discover the extraordinary life of Pedro Navarro. From his humble beginnings as a shepherd in the Roncal Valley, Navarro rises to the highest military spheres, navigating a world full of political intrigue and war conflicts. Torremocha masterfully weaves together the story of Navarro, a young man who, after his days as a privateer in the Bay of Biscay, becomes a key figure in the wars in Italy and Spain's expansion into North Africa. The novel takes us through his exploits, such as the capture of Melilla and the crucial battle of Ravenna. But his loyalty is tested when he is abandoned by the king of Spain, an act of betrayal that leaves him at the mercy of his enemies and redefines his destiny.
