This book describes the life-changing experience of Martín Cortés, a Catalan and Spanish journalist whose boss makes him travel to Mexico on business. About to turn forty and married with a young daughter, he is not particularly happy. When he reaches the Aztec country, a string of circumstances lead him to believe that he is the reincarnation of the son of Hernán Cortés and he starts to feel both like a 21st century conqueror and conquered himself by the Americas. Reality and fiction come together with explosive results in this gripping adventure crime novel with supernatural overtones that explores the inner journey, a mid-life crisis, the search for happiness, overcoming prejudices, forgiveness, passion, the desire to improve the world, journalism and the 2030 Agenda, while throwing in a taste of betrayal, sexual debauchery, ambition, frustration and hypocrisy.
