Disguised as a man, Ana-María de Carbonela is on the run from the queen’s soldiers who tortured and killed her mother. She overhears Columbus' sailors preparing a mutiny, but before she can warn him, and convince him to write a journal detailing his privileges from Queen Isabella, she is captured.
When her Jewish tutor is caught and punished for rescuing her, she has a terrible decision to make: Save him ... but risk the death penalty for dressing as a man.

I love this book trailer, it makes me want to read the book.
Loved how the story weaves in Christopher Columbus and the rich historical details from that era, plus how it goes between modern characters and medieval with both having the same threads and themes.
