Through exhaustive research, the work collects anecdotes, confidences, and true episodes that demonstrate that, in many cases, reality is stranger than fiction.

Using historical quotes, documents, and testimonies, episodes such as Charles III's response to his son Charles IV regarding princesses, the controversial relationship of Queen Isabella II, or the affairs of Alfonso XII are reconstructed.
