As Beatriz hunts for her daughter in colonial New Spain, Los Guadalupes, a covert assembly of all castes, emerges.
An Independence movement that freed a whole nation through a cryptic adventure. The untold story of the birth of a Nation that lies in the heart of a mother.
In the Spanish Colony of New Spain (now Mexico-1808), Beatriz de Oviedo sets in motion a deep search for her abducted daughter Leona, heir to the Spanish Crown. France and Spain are in war. In this epic quest, she consolidates a secret group of all castes (ethnic groups), Los Guadalupes. Through a unique cryptic system, within a wicked reality, the search for Leona becomes the most thrilling adventure and the liberation of a whole nation.

The reader immerses into an overwhelming choral psico-thriller narrative, a world of social injustice, war, clandestine opium routes, decadent empires that use the Colonies to survive, magic, secrecy, visions, cryptic systems, ghosts, murder, but most importantly: a path to freedom built through the unity of castes, constantly denied by official history.

Los Guadalupes is a mindblowing & challenging story developed based on “Decolonization of Knowledge”. We focalize the plot across characters that have been systematically erased from official versions of Occidental History: LGBTI+ Community, immigrants, native cultures, feminists, African Culture, slavery, piracy, narcotic industry accepted by governments, sacred plants (entheogens), tribal rituals, ethnic diversity.

Mystery and excitement are clue pieces to our narrative. The Cypher Wheel, Anagrams, Acrostics, Steganography, and Monoalphabetic ciphers, among other embedding techniques, become the framing device for the development of our story. Through them, we understand the psychological and emotional universe of our characters, in the individual realm as well as the collective one. The reader will become an active part of the story’s evolution through the solution of encrypted messages, emotion, sensitivity, empathy, and intelligence. It is through this cryptic model that Truth has remained untouched, until now.

Every independence movement emerges from the discontent of the people. This discontent gradually grows until a courageous few decide to take action. However, before engaging in epic battles, these groups must first organize themselves. They gather funds to purchase supplies, acquire tactical information, and even influence politicians. All independence movements begin in secrecy, with small groups coming together to form covert societies. Over time, the specifics of these societies may be lost to history, but their legacy lives on through the newly formed nation.
