In it he has emphasized the union of literature and heritage that occurs in the Castle of Bulbuente. The fortress is not only a historic building recovered and enabled as charming accommodation, it is also his workspace, where he produces his literary works such as the latest and successful “El tablero de la reina”, set in the fifteenth century, with fundamental axes in the rise to power of Isabella the Catholic and the history of the game of chess.
