Shadows in Cartagena is the forth 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.Now, in Shadows in Cartagena, the tides shift once more.Isabella Miró returns to a city scarred by war and ruled by whispers. With her father disgraced, Rafael presumed dead, and the fleet in ruins, Cartagena is no longer the home she once knew. Beneath its polished masks and polite betrayals lies something older and darker-something the Crown has buried for centuries.Armed only with a stolen journal, a relic soaked in memory, and the courage no one expected her to wield, Isabella follows Rafael's coded entries into a labyrinth of conspiracy. Her search leads her through courtrooms and catacombs, from rebel slums to haunted mansions, unraveling secrets that could upend the empire itself.Every buried truth comes at a price.As Isabella chases the ghost of a sunken galleon, she uncovers a staggering possibility: the treasure the world mourns was only a decoy. And the real secret lies further offshore, in waters no empire dares name.This is no longer a hunt for gold-it's a reckoning.
