El Dorado: a tale of vengeance and avarice

By Matthew L Martin

Inspired by the Count of Monte Cristo, El Dorado tells the story of a southern American falsely accused, wrongfully convicted, and harshly imprisoned. An oil discovery in Confederate Arkansas promised to make Edward Danvers one of the wealthiest men in the South. Instead, he is framed for treason, arrested, and after a sham of a trial, is sentenced to die in a Confederate Prison in Virginia. In prison, Edward meets a man named Abe Farrow, an elderly veteran of the War of 1812, who knows of a city filled with riches, hidden deep within the Andes Mountains of Colombia. Too old to escape and claim the gold for himself, he tells his secrets to Danvers, who pledges to break out of prison, find the fortune, and hunt down the conspirators who plotted to destroy him. Betrayal, romance, tragedy, and adventure on land and sea are all waiting to be uncovered in the latest novel by Matthew L. Martin
