Years after a failed romance and rebellion, a man returns to Manila disguised as a wealthy jeweler, nursing a plan to burn the rotten colony to its roots. He tempts officials and friars, arms students with dangerous ideas, and prepares a single, shattering act to ignite revolt. A dark portrait of a society strangled by hypocrisy—and the price of awakening.
