Publisher's Synopsis
When our hero sails to 15th-century London, he acquires the first books ever printed in the English Language. Worth millions, he hopes to transport these back to the 21st century, where he will hire back his team and build the billion-dollar app. While in England, he learns of the rarely-seen, priceless 2,500-year-old manuscripts hidden in Spain that encompass the lost wisdom of the ages. If he can overcome numerous dangers to acquire these treasures, with his newfound status and wealth, he hopes to marry the beguiling Princess Marie-to him the most tantalizingly beautiful woman in any century. Along his perilous journey, he encounters the newly crowned King Henry the VII, the aspirational explorer Christopher Columbus and resplendent Queen Isabella as she and Ferdinand re-conquer Spain.
