From the front fly leaf: ‘Thirty fathoms deep off the coast of Peru lay the Spanish galleon, Santa Cruz, scuttled three hundred years ago to sve her treasure from falling prize to Drake.’ This is the story of a crew of divers, sailors and fighters who fought to recover the treasure and defend it from those who sought to take it.
