Journey to the Holy Land at the dawn of the Renaissance. A young Sephardic Jew, Yonatan Deulocresca, tries to change his fortune with a simple wager. But his lucrative win ignites the wrath of a vicious crime lord known as the Hyena, al-Dabaa. This kingpin abducts Yonatan’s father Joachim and threatens to kill him unless Yonatan pays the ransom–a sum far greater than his winnings. Bearing the scars of family trauma and thorny sibling animosity, Yonatan and his brother Aaron embark on a perilous voyage to recover a lost cache of family assets. Their father’s decades-old navigation journal describes a treasure trove hidden on an island in the Mediterranean. The two brothers meet Captain Gabriel Coron and his indomitable crew of Sephardic corsairs, who quickly become their only chance to retrieve it. Carrying a letter of marque from the Ottoman Sultan, this company of Jewish pirates seeks justice and restitution against the Inquisition and the Spanish royals who robbed, murdered, and exiled thousands of Jews. Completely inexperienced as sea hands, the two Deulocresca heirs must prove their mettle aboard the corsair vessel, as they hunt for Spanish plunder. Can a life-threatening journey bring two brothers together and repair a family sundered by ghosts from the past? Will they find and reclaim their inheritance to free their father? Or will piracy, the sea, or the Spanish claim their lives first? Don’t miss out on this epic tale of courage, loyalty, and family bonds. If you enjoy immersive historical settings, edge-of-your-seat suspense, and uncommon heroes, Michelle Fogle’s adventurous tale will capture you.
