The story of a brilliant imposter.
Emilia Serrano, a fake “baroness” by marriage and ahead of her time, was a powerful publishing and fashion businesswoman, a frequent visitor to royal circles, transatlantic traveler, advisor, polyglot, patron of major Latin American governments, and a spy… But, above all, she was a true impostor. With her intelligence, her talent for languages and an innate intuition to make fashion a big business, she managed to become the most sought-after influencer of the time.
Along the way, she will lose her innocence and a daughter, and realize that getting married will only undermine her independence. Enemies lurk and everyone has reason to unmask her. A woman who from birth was not privileged, and that to get the freedom and knowledge she longed for, she had to reinvent herself into an incredible character to break the rules imposed on the women of her time. This is her story.
