La Fortuna

On young diplomat Alex Ventura's first day of work at the Ministry of Culture, he never imagined that something was happening hundreds of miles away that would change his life forever: in the unexplored depths of the ocean, Captain Frank Wild and his crew, aboard his ship the Pioneer, find and loot the largest underwater treasure ever discovered. After proving that the treasure was extracted from the remains of the Spanish frigate ""The Fortuna,"" sunk in waters of the Strait of Gibraltar by English ships in the early 19th century, Alex leads the mission to recover the treasure from Wild and his modern-day pirates. Along with Jonas Pierce, a brilliant American lawyer with a passion for old pirate stories, and Lucía, a feisty civil servant, young Alex will set out on the adventure of his life and, along the way, will learn the value of friendship, love and committing yourself to what you believe in. Thus begins a fascinating story filled with unexpected setbacks, conflicts and revelations, in which a small group of idealists face the ambition of the last modern pirate and the surprising ins and outs of politics, power and international relations.
