Summary :
1636 The ship is pitching on the raging ocean. Suddenly, it capsizes. It's over for it, as it is for all the other ships in the fleet. In the port of Amsterdam, rumors are spreading: the Windjammer family is ruined. The death of Hercules Windjammer adds to this misfortune. At only fifteen years old, his son, Adam, finds himself at the head of the maritime empire, with rage in his heart: he must regain his lost honor... To save the company, he has a crazy idea: to trade in the fragile bulb, the "black pearl," a tulip highly prized by sultans... But dangers and serious plots await him just around the corner of the port.
