La primera novela histórica del autor de El castillo, ambientada en la trepidante época de la batalla de Lepanto.
Año 1560. Alejandro Farnesio, príncipe de Parma, marcha a estudiar a la universidad de Alcalá de Henares, donde coincide con el príncipe Carlos, heredero a la corona de España, y don Juan de Austria, reconocido como hermano por Felipe II.
Es una mala época para España, amenazada por musulmanes rebeldes en Granada, herejes en Flandes e Inglaterra y, sobre todo, la lucha contra los turcos por el control del Mediterráneo.
Un tiempo apasionante que desemboca en la batalla de Lepanto, donde se dice que se derramó tanta sangre, que el mar se tiñó de rojo.
