Beneath the calm surface of Lisbon in seventeen fifty five, danger waited in silence. Towering churches and gold-lined streets disguised a city built on fragile ground. On the eve of disaster, the world moved as if nothing could ever change.Lisbon was a city that seemed to promise permanence. Its hills climbed above the Tagus River, crowned with churches, convents, and grand houses, all arranged in narrow, twisting streets. Ships lined the docks, bringing wealth from Brazil, Africa, and northern Europe.
