The Shores of Spain. The Golden City, #4

As a part of reestablishing ties between the Portugals and the Islands of the Sereia, Oriana Paredes-one of Northern Portugal's first sereia citizens-has been sent to their shores as the first Portuguese ambassador in decades. Her primary mission is to build trade between the nations, but privately, she and her new husband Duilio are following a second quest, to learn who murdered her mother. Preliminary evidence suggests that the sereia intelligence agency has been infiltrated by sereia loyal to the Spanish throne-citizens of their colonies in the Canary Islands.
Why they would want to do so is a mystery, though. What does Spain have to gain from killing sereia?When their single bit of evidence-her mother's journal-is stolen, Oriana and Duilio have to rely on his half-brother Joaquim to pursue the thieves back to Europe. Joaquim is a finder, and no one can follow thieves as well as him. But he's soon drawn into the thieves' plans, and must find a way for himself and Marina to escape the shores of Spain.**This book is a second edition of a previously published book**
