Description
In 1659, a Spanish galleon filled with treasure sailed from Veracruz, Mexico. After a short stop for supplies in Havana it left on its long voyage to Spain. It was sunk in a hurricane on a reef off the coast of Haiti, and no one knew what happened to it. About 350 years later an ancient parchment document was discovered in the archives of a museum in Havana that brought the subject of that galleon to a small U.S. Navy crew that worked for the Office of Naval Intelligence. It led Captain Al Jacobs and his crew on a fascinating adventure. This is the fifth novel in Rubin's series, which also includes "Chasing Pirates," "The Counterfeit War," "The Missing Bomb," and "U-Boat Secret Mission."
