    • Synopsis
    • After a promise, Lucía embarks on the adventure of saving from destruction a beautiful colonial house that her sister, Cecilia, has acquired to function as a cultural center. However, its former owner - a very powerful man - wants it back to destroy it and build a modern shopping center in its place. For this, his envoy, Domínguez, does not hesitate to use the dirtiest methods to achieve his goal. This is how, working on her mission, Lucía receives the unexpected help of Gonzalo, a friend of her sister, who contributes the key element in the investigation: the personal diary of a Creole who lived in that house two hundred years earlier, Teresa Vásquez de Velazco , a brave woman who fought for the Emancipation of Peru. Through the reading of the newspaper, they will look for the historical data that demonstrates the importance of conserving the house and ensuring that it is declared a Historical Heritage, and therefore, intangible. Reading the newspaper will bring more than one surprise. The present will be reflected, as in a game of mirrors, in those old pages. The coincidences are so many that Lucía wonders if she herself is a reincarnation of Teresa.
