Action-packed tale follows Neal and Annette as their shipboard crew mutinies Abe, a perilous search for papers tied to the lost island of Cinnabar, and a daring escape from a fort. They survive betrayals, capture, and a perilous jungle trek toward possible American rescue.
Neal is captive in a decrepit fort while Annette is held in a temple as Hernandez leads insurrectos toward Corazon del Sol. Marines close in from the coast as Annette escapes, Neal frees himself by a hidden dungeon window, and the sun god’s ritual ends in a violent clash with the temple guards.
