This novel by Arantzazu Ametzaga tells passionately one of those chapters, perhaps the most important and unknown, which took place in a Pyrenean gorge back in August of 778. She tells the story in a documented and entertaining way, bringing together different stories from two timelines: the VIIIth century, going with Charlemagne to Vasconia, and the XIIIth century, developing stained glass in the cathedral of Chartres. A captivating tale to recall the deed which founded the first Vascones Kingdom.
