The revolution will begin in Mexico in 1911, when the country will overthrow a corrupt dictator and try to rebuild itself. The treasure fifteen thousand gold coins will be expropriated for the needs of the revolution from a bank safe and then disappear without a trace. And the man, a young mining engineer Martin Garrett Ortiz, will get involved in revolutionary affairs, first from boredom and curiosity, and then at the call of the soul. The revolution will come true, although the victors will not be those who shed blood for it, and not even those who believed in it. Sooner or later the treasure will be found. And a man in his own skin will recognize the delight of battle and animal fear, trembling love and cynical betrayal, cruelty and generosity, despair and excitement - he will grow up and understand what honor is, what death is and what disappointment is. Arturo Perez-Reverte is a former military journalist, the famous author of brilliant historical, military, adventure novels translated into forty languages, the creator of the series about Captain Diego Alatrista, the winner of the most prestigious literary awards. His “Revolution” is a grand adventure epic, the story of a soul that lost its innocence in a romantic impulse, and personal heroism, inevitably coming to a bloody mess of carnage in the name of high goals.
