'Pat joins his father and his father's friend in their search for a shipwreck off the coast
of an Indonesian island. This island is a territory in turmoil, with freedom fighters
actively seeking independence from Indonesia and the Indonesian military using
extreme methods to quell uprisings. In searching for the lost Flor do Mar - a sixteenth-century Portuguese ship, the richest shipwreck in the world, which was once loaded with treasures from Malacca (near Indonesia) - Pat and the others start piecing together the old history that led to
the ship being wrecked. But they also become reluctantly and fatefully embroiled in modern-day Indonesian politics.' (Source: Publisher's website)
