ADMIRALTY SPY HABBAKUK PARTON'S STRUGGLE TO GAIN THE CRUMBLING SPANISH EMPIRE FOR ENGLAND CONTINUES...
In Mexico a top civil servant has agreed to betray crucial strategic information if Parton rescues his small son who's held hostage by the Imperial Inquisition.
As he begins his tortuous trek across Mexico Parton knows his mission will not be easy. Not only is he ignorant of the boy's whereabouts but he has been presented with an impossible timescale in which to find him. And the spies of Palafox, the inexorable Inquisitor-General, are looking for Parton everywhere.
His first stroke of luck is to fall in with Gabriela, a beautiful, passionate dancer on the way to make her fortune.
But the second is to fall into the clutches of Palafox and his voluptuous, sadistic mistress, Maria-Dolores. Parton will need all his ingenuity and determination to survive what happens next...
