It is the sequel to Noli Me Tngere and, like the first book, was written in Spanish. The novels dark theme departs dramatically from the previous novels hopeful and romantic atmosphere, signifying Ibarras resort to solving his countrys issues through violent means, after his previous attempt in reforming the countrys system made no effect and seemed impossible with the corrupt attitude of the Spaniards toward the Filipinos.

Simoun visits Basilio in Tiagos house and tries to convince him again to join his revolution. Simouns plan is for a cannon volley to be fired, at which point Kabesang Tales, now a bandit who calls himself Matanglawin, and Simoun who managed to deceive and recruit a sizable rogue force among the government troops, will lead their forces into the city. While Simoun and Matanglawin direct their forces, Basilio and several others are to force open the door of the Convent of the Poor Clares and rescue Mara Clara.
