About this title

Synopsis

100 years, after the expulsion of Spain, Fernand, a young man who lives life in a fragrant ivory tower, believes that life on the straight and narrow, is the only way to keep safe from the Inquisition. Until one day, when he his confronted with a family secret, that threatens to unravel everything he believes, about not only his life, but everyone in it. The Watchmen series is a poignant work of Jewish historical fiction inspired by the real life resilience of the Crypto Jews, Secret Jews, and the Converso community who defied the Spanish Inquisition after their expulsion from Spain. This sweeping saga illuminates the hidden lives of those who kept their faith alive in the shadows, preserving sacred traditions, passing down ancestral knowledge, and resisting cultural erasure under a cloak of silence. Spanning generations and continents, The Watchmen traces an underground movement that helped countless Converso Jews escape persecution while safeguarding a spiritual legacy nearly lost to history. Through richly drawn characters based on actual figures from the Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch Converso movements and lyrical storytelling rooted in truth, this series brings to life a world of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring power of return. This is not just a story of survival. It is a chronicle of resistance, resilience, and the sacred memory that refuses to be forgotten. Join the movement. Read the story. Live the legacy.
