Treasures & Treachery is the sixth volume in The San José Saga, a seven-part epic where myth and history collide in tides of fate, betrayal, and endurance. Where The Galleon's Birth set the course, Sails of Destiny plunged us into deeper waters-where alliances frayed, loyalties were tested, and every truth came at a cost. Battle at Cartagena shattered what remained. The tides shifted in Shadows in Cartagena, once more. Then came Echoes of the Deep, the past waits patiently, and the future forged in the depths.
In Treasures & Treachery, the treasure is found. Now comes the price.
Global powers descend like sharks. Corporations offer riches. Governments demand blood. And through it all, Isabella stands between the wreck and those who would desecrate it. Her crew is splintering. Her financiers betray her. And the man she loves may not survive another battle. The world wants the gold. Only Isabella knows what it cost.
When sabotage threatens the final dive, enemies become allies, and old rivals rise from the depths. Tomas Delgado-the man who once loved her and tried to destroy her-returns with claims of his own. As secrets unravel, Don Esteban's past casts new shadows: the treasure was meant to preserve a native legacy, not a royal one.
In a daring move, Isabella offers the unthinkable-she will surrender the silver, the coins, the legacy of the San José... if she can tell its full story. What follows is a race against time, betrayal, and history itself, ending in one final revelation: the truth is the only treasure worth dying for.
