Sumérgete en el Ámsterdam de 1659, donde la riqueza se crea y se destruye en un instante en la primera bolsa de valores del mundo. Miguel Lienzo, un astuto comerciante judío portugués, lo ha perdido todo tras el colapso del mercado del azúcar. Desesperado por cambiar su destino, se asocia con la seductora Geertruid en un audaz plan para monopolizar el comercio de un nuevo producto: el café. Para triunfar, Miguel deberá arriesgarlo todo y enfrentarse a un enemigo implacable que busca su caída. Una historia de subterfugios y peligros donde las tradiciones culturales y religiosas chocan con las exigencias de un nuevo mundo de negocios.

David Liss is an American writer of novels, essays and short fiction; more recently working also in comic books. He was born in New Jersey and grew up in South Florida. Liss received his BA degree from Syracuse University, an MA from Georgia State University and his M. Phil from Columbia University. He left his post-graduate studies of 18th Century British literature and unfinished dissertation to write full-time. "If things had not worked out with fiction, I probably would have kept to my graduate school career track and sought a job as a literature professor," he said. A full-time writer since 2010, Liss lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife and children.
