Description

An old Spanish historical mystery awakens the interest of a journalist, a retired psychic spy of a Top Secret US Air Force programme, and several cardinals in Rome. Its solution is linked to a Sixteenth Century nun, who was accused by the Spanish Inquisition of travelling more than 500 times to the New Mexico territories using her power to bilocate (to be in more than two places at the same time). The novel is based on a famous US Southwestern legend that a strange Lady in Blue appeared to the Native Americans, informing them of the arrival of the first conquistadores. The conquistadores initially believed she was the Virgin of Guadalupe -- but the truth is far more surprising...

How did you come to write this book?

Javier Sierra Javier Sierra

I was really pushed by Fate to write this novel. It all began in 1991 when I first noticed the surprising story of Sister Mary of Agreda, a spanish seventeenth century cloistered nun who had the gift of bilocation --she was in New Mexico, preaching to the Native Americans and in her convent, at the same time! I was obsessed with this phenomena for years, and finally I decided to write down my conclusions in a novel. This is the most personal novel I have written to date.

Learn more about Javier Sierra

"The Lady in Blue is the haunting and evocative tale of the triumph of modern spirit and science over a 400-year-old conspiracy. Javier Sierra's groundbreaking historical research opens our eyes to a world we thought we knew, and revisits, in a surprising way, the devastating clash between Catholic Europe and the far more ancient world of the American Southwest."

-- Katherine Neville, bestselling author of The Eight and The Magic Circle

"This fantastic story imparts an alternative, expanded view that we do not usually find in our academic, politically motivated history books. This is what Javier Sierra brings to us in his most recent novel, The Lady in Blue. Read this book before it's made into a screenplay. You will be happy you did."

-- Skip Atwater, president and executive director of the Monroe Institute, an organization dedicated to working with audio sound patterns in the exploration of human consciousness

"Javier Sierra has done it again! His last book, The Secret Supper, left readers wanting more and Javier has given them just what they have been waiting for with The Lady in Blue! Each chapter keeps you completely captivated and at times makes you look over your shoulder looking for the spirit of the Spanish nun. I'm completely in love with this book and it's a must read!"

-- MaryRose Occhino, author of Sign of the Dove and radio show host of "Angels on Call," on Sirius Stars 102
