Synopsis

Blanco and Eva are on the long, dangerous journey back to Venice from Spain when they are marooned on an island by a bunch of pirates. Not only is the place inhabited by some very strange nuns, they soon discover that Count Maleficio is in residence there too, deep in a cave underneath a church. It doesn't take Blanco and Eva long to find out that the count wants to murder Blanco. And, irritating though she often finds him, Eva doesn't really want that to happen. What she doesn't know, though, is that Maleficio thinks that she is the key to something that will make him and his accomplice in Venice very powerful indeed. As the count concentrates on kidnapping Eva, perfecting the first gunpowder ever and putting his dastardly plans into action, Blanco's torn between escaping himself and rescuing her. And as for the angels, they're so busy arguing, they may be too late to help either of them...A rollicking ride through medieval Europe with cannons, cutlasses and some big, scary buccaneers!
