Book: “The Headless Saints” – A Gothic Mystery Unearthed in the Heart of Barcelona
Dark alleyways. Forgotten cults. A headless priest.
Barcelona has never felt more mysterious… The Headless Saints: A Barcelona Gothic Mystery is now available on Kindle — and it’s not just a book. It’s an invitation into the city’s darkest corners, where legend bleeds into reality and history hides deadly secrets.
It begins with a chilling scene:
In the quiet cloister of the Barcelona Cathedral, Sacristan Manel Ribas stumbles upon the beheaded body of Father Josep Lluís Soler. Thirteen geese — sacred symbols of Saint Eulàlia — watch silently over the grotesque ritual.
But this is only the beginning.
Disgraced historian Eva Marçal, mocked for her research into pre-Christian cults tied to Saint Eulàlia, sees her theories come terrifyingly alive. At her side: Mateo Ferrer, a jaded investigator and childhood friend of the victim. Together, they uncover a trail leading through ossuaries, crypts, and ancient Roman ruins to a fanatical killer known as The Pilgrim — and to a forgotten society called the Custodians of the Silent Light. And it all leads to one chilling question: Can the past kill the future?
Set against a haunting Gothic Barcelona backdrop — where every stone seems to whisper — The Headless Saints weaves history, conspiracy, and occult mystery into a gripping thriller. Perfect for fans of Umberto Eco, Arturo Pérez-Reverte, or “The Da Vinci Code” — this novel is ideal for those who crave rich atmosphere, secret societies, and high-stakes historical intrigue.
