Legacy Lies: An ARCH Novel

At 25, former Army soldier Carlos Mejia never expected to be embroiled in a treasure hunt, let alone the greatest the world had ever seen. In 1708, a fleet of ships was sent to the New World to bring back riches to fund the first Bourbon King's claim to the Spanish throne, igniting the Spanish Succession War. The Santo Domingo, carrying the vast wealth of the Silver Fleet, disappeared, becoming the "holy grail" of treasure mysteries. In truth, she carried something far more dangerous-something Apollo's Men, a shadowy brotherhood, would kill to keep hidden.Fast forward 300 years, the ship and its contents, now valued at $20 billion, have become the subject of a legal battle among three government entities. Simultaneously, an unknown benefactor has engaged the Artifact Retrieval and Collection Hub (A.R.C.H.), a private sector company, to locate the treasure.The plot thickens when a rogue ex-employee of A.R.C.H., driven by a desire for glory and personal gain, jeopardizes everything. With a tip on the galleon's location, he is determined to claim the treasure for himself, even if it means eliminating anyone who stands in his way, including Carlos's father. Told in alternating timelines between the present and the early 1700s, Legacy Lies weaves a gripping adventure of love, betrayal, and legacy. Read more
