Continúan las aventuras y desventuras de Luis María de Monroy, el joven soldado de los Tercios a quien ya conocimos en El cautivo, en el contexto de los continuos enfrentamientos en el S. XVI entre las tropas españolas de Felipe II y las del Imperio Otomano. Apresado y hecho cautivo en la batalla de Los Gelves, gracias a su inteligencia, su dominio del arte de cantar y tañer el laúd y algún que otro golpe de suerte, logrará salvaguardar su vida primero en Susa y luego en Estambul, la urbe más fascinante y cosmopolita de la época, donde arriesgará doblemente su vida al colaborar con una trama de espionaje al servicio del emperador español. La apasionante vida del caballero Monroy, protagonista de la exitosa trilogía de El caballero de Alcántara, es el fiel reflejo una época tan fascinante como compleja, la del esplendor del imperio hispánico de los Austrias, la misma de Lope y Cervantes. El protagonista de la novela pronto descubrirá que los ideales caballerescos y religiosos, la música y la poesía, la patria y el honor han de convivir inevitablemente con la crueldad de las guerras, el hambre que asola al pueblo llano, y la iniquidad, a veces, de sus gobernantes.
