Flavia Gemina the sea captain's daughter and her friends Jonathan, Lupus and Nubia are at home in Ostia when the arrival of a ragged man shocks them all. To her horror, Flavia learns that her family is in danger of losing everything they own.
Events take Flavia and her friends to an opulent seaside villa a few miles south of Ostia. When they discover a sunken wreck just off the coast, it seems to be the answer to all their problems. But someone else is after the treasure, too. As they try to recover it, they solve the terrible mystery of Lupus's past.
