1767, February. The sailing ship "Dei Gloria", belonging to the Jesuit order, dies near the coast of Spain, having engaged in a battle with pirates. The only survivor, a young man, not having time to fully testify about what happened, mysteriously disappears. All he managed to report before his disappearance is the coordinates of the place of the tragedy... Spain, our time. The navigator Manuel Coy, temporarily deprived of the right to engage in ship activities for the fact that during the watch landed the ship on the shoal, gets acquainted at an auction with a girl who bought for a lot of money an ancient sea map. Tangier Soto, an employee of a museum in Madrid, is maniacally obsessed with the idea of finding a lost ship, which she believes was traveling with a cargo of extreme importance. She takes Koya as her assistant as an experienced navigational expert. The girl is well aware that she has crossed the path of powerful and dangerous forces capable of doing anything to eliminate her rival. But that doesn't stop her... In the best traditions of "The Dumas Club" and "The Flemish Board"!
