In 1492, Ferdinand and Isabella, monarchs of Spain, set in motion earth-changing events: Columbus received his ships, the Moslem Moors were expelled from the realm followed shortly by the Jews, those who did not convert to Catholicism or pretend to. In the next twenty-five years, Spain began to colonize the lands Columbus claimed and Cortez brought down the Aztec Empire, creating New Spain in the New World. Eighty years after that, the conquest reached New Mexico.

There, Andorra Sandoval, daughter of a New Mexico rancher and an English playgirl, explores her family's connection to that conquest, while a fascinating artist and his needy teenage daughter tempt her toward a fuller life.

The Lives of La Escondida is a love story both sexy and tender, full of vivid history, lively characters, peril and adventure with the rich culture of northern New Mexico at center stage.
