- Summary:
- Five hundred years ago, a group of Spanish conquistadors searching for gold lands in the New World. What they find is a treasure far more valuable: the Fountain of Youth. The Spaniards slaughter the Native American tribe that guards the precious liquid that will keep the conquistadors young for centuries. But Shako, the chief's daughter, escapes and swears to avenge her people--a blood oath that spans more than five centuries. When the source of the fountain is destroyed in our own time, the loss threatens the Spaniards and the powerful, shadowy empire of wealth and influence they have built. They turn to David Robinton, a scientific prodigy who believes he is on the verge of the greatest medical breakthrough of all time. But when David makes a horrifying discovery about his employers and the mysterious and exotic woman he loves, he must decide: Is he a pawn in a game of immortals--or will he be its only winner?
