Descripción

Based on true events, this gripping novel questions some of the most widespread subjects surrounding the admiral's life, such as his birth in Genoa, his status as a converted Jew, or the idea that he arrived in America by chance.

In Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, the remains of Christopher Columbus mysteriously vanish from his tomb. A strange hieroglyph is the only clue left by the looters...

The same hieroglyph appears on the facade of Seville's cathedral, and the remains preserved there have also been stolen...

Three investigators know that this is not just a simple robbery: the hieroglyph stamped on both mausoleums is the enigmatic signature once used by the admiral.

This will be the key to solving the mystery, leading to an unexpected conclusion that will change humanity's perception of the man who united two worlds.
