About the Book

After leaving her life in Uruguay behind, a woman travels to a spiritual retreat in the Italian countryside seeking clarity, peace, and purpose. Surrounded by olive trees, silence, and ten strangers on their own journeys, she hopes to reconnect with her intuition. Instead, she uncovers hidden truths, subtle betrayals, and the deeper patterns she has carried for years.

As the retreat unfolds, she is drawn into a world of shadow-work, spiritual teachers with complicated pasts, and rituals that reveal more than they conceal. When trust breaks and old wounds rise to the surface, she discovers that the greatest betrayal is the one that happens when we ignore our own inner voice.

The Stranger That Betrayed Me is an atmospheric, poetic novella about self-trust, emotional resilience, and the powerful awakening that comes from listening to your truth. Perfect for readers who love introspective fiction, spiritual journeys, mindfulness, feminine healing, and stories set against lush, immersive landscapes.
