Synopsis

Flemming Oppenhagen Behrend

Inspired by the rare archival find, Some Actual Information on the Life of Agent Behrend (1915), The Key from Cordoba, transports readers to 18th-century Copenhagen. The story follows Joachim, a young Jewish man sent by his mother to Denmark for an arranged marriage. Against the backdrop of the Battle of Copenhagen and the city’s later bombardment, Joachim’s journey is one of ambition, love, and cultural survival. His rise to wealth and connections with the royal family are juxtaposed against the societal turmoil of his time, culminating in the Jewish riots of 1820.
