About this listen

When a demonic presence awakens deep in a Mexican silver mine, the young woman it seizes must turn to the one man she shouldn’t trust…from bestselling author Isabel Cañas.

In 1765, plague sweeps through Zacatecas. Alba flees with her wealthy merchant parents and fiancé, Carlos, to his family’s isolated mine for refuge. But safety proves fleeting as other dangers soon bare their teeth: Alba begins suffering from strange hallucinations, sleepwalking, and violent convulsions. She senses something cold lurking beneath her skin. Something angry. Something wrong.

Elías, haunted by a troubled past, came to the New World to make his fortune and escape his family’s legacy of greed. Alba, as his cousin’s betrothed, is none of his business. Which is of course why he can’t help but notice the growing tension between them every time she enters the room…and why he notices her deteriorate when the demon’s thirst for blood gets stronger.

In the fight for her life, Alba and Elías become entangled with the occult, the Church, long-kept secrets, and each other… not knowing that one of these things will spell their doom.

Critic reviews

“With every book, Isabel Cañas asserts jaw-dropping peerlessness at her craft. Chilling and tender, bloody and sensuous, The Possession of Alba Díaz is Cañas working at the height of her prodigious powers, expanding her fascinating Gothic oeuvre with her best and most brutal work yet. I devoured it."–Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six

"Gorgeous and gory. No one writes gothic like Isabel Cañas. The Possession of Alba Díaz is terrifically terrifying, richly imagined, impossibly sensual and as luminous as the quicksilver that spills across its pages."—Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Tale of The Flower Bride

"Searching for self; broken families; women in white; divinity colonised and decolonised; romance; possession in all of its forms—with prose at times deliciously baroque, at times austere as the Zacatecas landscape, Cañas has created a gothic feast for the senses. Don't read it too late at night."—Brigitte Knightley, author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy
