Anticausal: Elcano and the Scepter of Priam (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798181822733)

Every coincidence hides a causality.

Chloe Santillana was twenty-five, with a life that let itself drift - until an impossible document crossed her path: the lost record of an interrogation of Juan Sebastián Elcano, the first captain ever to sail around the world, which answered - five hundred years early - with her name.

"It will be three men led by a woman, Chloe Santillana."

With Gael, Toñito and the enigmatic Antonio, Chloe follows the trail of the Pignora Imperii - the relics that secretly guaranteed the power of Rome - from the taverns of Valladolid to the churches of the Cantabrian coast and the Merindades of Burgos. Every discovery brings her closer to the scepter of Priam, the object that keeps time.

And time, when it lets itself be watched, always collects its price.

Book One of the Anticausal Trilogy. A historical mystery built on real documents - with maps, a historical note, and a facsimile of the 1522 record from the General Archive of the Indies. For readers of Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Carlos Ruiz Zafón and Dan Brown.
