On the imaginary island of Santana, an island with an idiosyncratic past, idiosyncratic religion, and idiosyncratic inhabitants, the quiet and peaceful life of the Santanians is dangerously disrupted when a fierce feud escalates between two powerful local forces: the Palace and the Monastery. But the history of Santana is built on the mystery of pulse waves and the deception of reflections. It is a strange island, where everything coexists with its opposite image. Historical eras, powers, genders, truth, and knowledge. The narrative itself is inscribed on its reflection, as if on a mirror. Deceptions, secrets, intrigues, and transformations unexpectedly involve the heroes, the inhabitants, the visitors, and even the legends of Santana in a story of mystery, envy, and redemption.
