In 1683, while the Sun King rules from Versailles and the Dutch East India Company dominates trade, Europe becomes fond of coffee, an exotic infusion controlled by the Turks. Obediah Chalon, a young Englishman imprisoned in Amsterdam, receives a risky offer: to steal a coffee plant from the Turks in exchange for freedom and wealth. This mission takes him on a journey full of adventures, intrigues, and conspiracies, where he must use all his ingenuity and contacts to achieve a theft that will change the history of Europe. A historical novel that masterfully combines adventures, conspiracies, and a touch of romance, portraying an era of great changes and discoveries.
