Centuries after the destruction of Pacha Rurac, a flourishing town in the Peruvian highlands, Helébora is born. As a direct descendant of the Curaka of Pacha Rurac, the girl ́s destiny is determined: "Liberate the Andes from the forces of evil," which she will do under the ancestral protection of the "Chancay dolls." A series of events announces the beginning of a new era, starting with the rise from the eternal slumber of twenty-five thousand souls who perished in the Pacha Rurac tragedy. Once in the world, they will use Helebora, and she will learn the most guarded secret of the Andes. To achieve their ends, Helébora will see her quiet and monotonous life turned upside down. The Apparition will submerge readers in a world of lost civilizations, myths, legends, intertwined histories, and charming characters who will converge to delight the reader with the spirit of the Andes. The driving force underneath it all is love.

The Maoist guerrilla group Shining Path launched its violent campaign against the government in Peru’s Ayacucho region in 1980. When the military and counterinsurgency police forces were dispatched to oppose the insurrection, the violence quickly escalated. The peasant community of Sarhua was at the epicenter of the conflict, and this small village is the focus of Unveiling Secrets of War in the Peruvian Andes. There, nearly a decade after the event, Olga M. González follows the tangled thread of a public secret: the disappearance of Narciso Huicho, the man blamed for plunging Sarhua into a conflict that would sunder the community for years. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and a novel use of a cycle of paintings, González examines the relationship between secrecy and memory. Her attention to the gaps and silences within both the Sarhuinos’ oral histories and the paintings reveals the pervasive reality of secrecy for people who have endured episodes of intense violence. González conveys how public secrets turn the process of unmasking into a complex mode of truth telling. Ultimately, public secrecy is an intricate way of “remembering to forget” that establishes a normative truth that makes life livable in the aftermath of a civil war.
