This book tells the story Luis de Santángel: chancellor to the Spanish royal court, friend and financier of Christopher Columbus, and born to a family of conversos—Jewish converts to Christianity. As Santángel witnesses his family, friends, and associates succumb one by one to the horrors of the Inquisition, he must navigate a world of intrigue, betrayal, and bloodshed before he can find redemption. Mitchell James Kaplan has lived and worked primarily in Paris and Los Angeles as a translator, screenwriter, and script consultant. By Fire, By Water is his first novel.
