ENGLISH DESCRIPTION What will the history books say of Juan Carlos I? What kind of kingdom will Leonor inherit? Will she reign? There is an old king, Juan Carlos, tragic. And two new monarchs, Felipe and Letizia, walking on red carpets that cover a line of dead bodies. There is a princess, Leonor, protected as if she were the Holy Grail. She is the family's greatest hope and future. There is love, sex, and money. There is a whole lot of money. There are also betrayals, threats, and ambitions. There is a photo album of the Royal Family in Hola! magazine that it isn't real. There is a line from Shakespeare that sums up what happened: "[The crown] Hast eat thy bearer up." And another one that describes what is happening now: "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." This story is a tale at its end. But also, a tale that is ongoing. This book is an essential account of those episodes that plunged the Royal Family into a crisis as unforeseeable as it is serious, and the analysis that such facts require in times of post-truth and disaffection. The author invites us to know the what first and then understand the why, in order to comprehend Juan Carlos' collapse, why his downfall did not make the kind of racket it should have, and how he has become the greatest threat to Leonor's throne. The Crown's uncertain future lies with her. Because every kingdom is always inherited with all its ghosts. If it is indeed inherited at all...
