Synopsis

Everyone expects to control California in 1834: The old colonizers, the newly installed government craving support from Mexico after serving the Spanish crown, Russian oligarchs using their Russian-American companies, the French who don’t want to relinquish their control of this rich territory and the newly formed United States of America. The victims of this struggle are always the same, the people; the native Indians, some of which serve as semi slaves in the missions and others remain free, the Mexican workers exploited and disenfranchised by the government, and the immigrants of every race and origins that came looking for opportunities. Their last hope is a millennial hero that has kept the peace in their world and has now reincarnated in the young Diego de la Vega. New times call for a new hero.

The Vengeance of Zorro - Novel by Barry Creyton


The new Commandante’s arrival in Reina de los Angeles was uneventful. Then Capitán Juan Ruelas began mapping his path to political power. He began by overtaxing the people, to finance his campaign. Those who could not pay his high taxes were tortured.

Juanita, the pretty tavern server, sought help for her imprisoned father. She turned to Fray Felipe and Don Diego de la Vega — the lazy popinjay who moonlighted as the masked Zorro, scourge of outlaws and sworn enemy to tyrants. But perhaps not all Zorro’s cleverness can protect him and his loved ones when Ruelas’s oppression assumes a more personal nature.

Through the memoirs of Bernardo, Diego’s loyal manservant, unfold the degradations carried out by Capitan Ruelas, and the revenge exacted by Zorro.
