En 1789 estalla la Revolución Francesa y España se encuentra en una encrucijada, pues ha perdido a su tradicional aliado, que se le vuelve en contra, teniendo que decidir un nuevo sistema de alianzas. Pero en la cúspide del poder en España las opiniones están encontradas respecto al camino a tomar. Francia es ahora republicana y anticristiana, pero Inglaterra ansía hacerse con la América española. Y ante estos dos colosos a las garras, es difícil mantenerse al margen y salir indemne. España sola no puede. Aprovechando el desconcierto, Napoleón obliga a abdicar a los dos Reyes Borbones y designa rey a su propio hermano. Los españoles de ambos mundos tienen que decidir entonces por primera vez en muchos siglos a quién entregar su lealtad. Se han elegido una serie de personajes históricos claves de la época, para a través de su historia novelada, tratar de entender cómo y por quién tomaron partido, y qué fue lo que nos pasó. 10
