As their relationship deepens, Corinna gains access to a world hidden from Spaniards—a palace full of money, gifts and free rein to do anything he wants

~

King Juan Carlos I became a national hero when he saved Spain’s fledgling democracy, but who was he before that? During weekends at the casita, Corinna zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn asks the king about his troubled past, from the tragic death of his younger brother to his upbringing under the thumb of a brutal dictator — Francisco Franco.

But she soon sees that those days are behind him. Now Juan Carlos is dripping in wealth, coming back from overseas trips with suitcases full of cash. Where the money goes is another question, because once the king has his hands on it, he has a talent for making it disappear.
