Books like Limpieza de sangre by Arturo Pérez-Reverte


Diego Alatriste, preparing to rejoin his historic tercio in Flandes, is pulled into a deadly investigation by his friend Don Francisco de Quevedo. An executioner‑strangled woman lies before the San Ginés church, clutching a money bag and a note saying, "Para misas por su alma." The case grows more complex when Alatriste is hired to rescue a novice nun from a convent. In the bustling, tavern‑filled streets of Felipe IV’s Madrid, his adventure unfolds among lances, taverns, gunman ambushes, and hidden machinations. The plot weaves together past grudges, as Alatriste faces former foes: the treacherous royal secretary Luis de Alquézar, the inquisitor Fray Emilio Bocanegra, and the sinister Italian swordsman Gualterio Malatesta.
