The Lady and The Pirate: The Incredible Story of Gracia Nassí (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798197029232)

To defeat an empire, they must steal its wealth. To save their people, they must forge a new world.

For the hunted "New Christians" of Europe, there is only one hope: La Señora. Doña Gracia Nassí controls a global trade empire, but her true life's work is a vast, illegal network smuggling refugees out from under the Inquisition's nose.

When her brilliant apprentice, Reuven, is unmasked by the Church for dissecting the dark, ancient origins of their faith, he is thrust into a brutal new life. Fleeing to the Caribbean, Reuven discovers a brotherhood of Jewish and Moorish corsairs striking back at the empires that exiled them. He becomes a pirate captain, raiding the Spanish Main to starve the Inquisition and funnel stolen silver back to Doña Gracia.

Armed with pirate gold and unparalleled diplomatic genius, the two exiles will weaponize the global economy, defy Popes and Sultans, and launch an audacious plan to reclaim the ruins of Tiberias. The Lady and The Pirate is a sweeping epic of survival, vengeance, and the unbreakable will of the woman who o lead her people home to the Holy Land.
