First part of the book was very gothic in the genre of Wuthering Heights or Jane Eyre.  Beatriz married Rodolfo and comes to live at his estate.  As the book progresses it is obvious the house is haunted.  Some mystery around who is haunting and why they are there. Beatriz is helped by a local priest Andre who also might be a witch.  Overall the story was just ok.
