Mexican Gothic
In response to a dramatic letter from her cousin with the strange claim that her husband is trying to poison her, Noemí abandons her ordinary life and travels to the province, to the town of El Triunfo. It is here, at the famous Lugar Alto, that Catalina lives, who has become a shadow of her former self since marrying Virgil Doyle. She says she hears voices coming from the walls and sees dead people.
More than one secret is hidden behind the walls of Lugar Alto. The old wealth obtained with the mining empire has protected the Doyles from the prying eyes of the inhabitants of El Triunfo. However, as Noemí begins to dig deeper, she starts to have disturbing visions and, little by little, discovers a terrifying story that, apparently, dates back several hundred years.
Will Noemí be able to resist the magnetic charms of the young master, the advances of her grumpy father, the attraction of the house itself, which invades her dreams with visions of blood, violence, and misfortune, and from which, as she will soon discover, Noemí does not even have the strength to leave?
A mesmerizing variation of the classic gothic romance in which suspense intertwines with Mexican folklore and the charm of the 1950s.
