In 1576, Queen Elizabeth of England ordered Captain Francis Drake on a three-year mission to pirate gold, silver, and precious jewels from King Phillip of Spain. Over four hundred years later, the heirs to DrakeÕs marauders are still fighting over a fortune. Enter attorney Conrad Olsen. He has grown tired with the practice of law, when Daniel Fletcher comes asking for help to find the lost treasure. Against his better judgment, Conrad agrees to represent Daniel Fletcher, the distant relative to Father Francis Fletcher Ð the expeditionÕs priest. What comes next completely alters ConradÕs life and rewrites the history of western civilization.
Set against the backdrop of the 2016 Presidential election, ConradÕs investigation into DrakeÕs hidden treasure reveals a world of deceit, double dealing, and his fatherÕs possible involvement in a covered-up murder in 1979.
