Leaving her a mysterious gift - a pair of golden earrings - the ghost disappears, setting Paloma off on a quest.
Paloma's exploration of her Spanish heritage, leads to a connection between the visitor and 'la Rusa', a woman who died in Paris in 1952, known for her rapid rise from poverty to flamenco star. Although her death was ruled a suicide, Paloma soon discovers that many people had reasons for wanting la Rusa dead… including Paloma's own grandmother.

Nothing is ever quite as it seems…
