La Ciudad Perdida (2022)

Description

Loretta Sage is an author who writes romance-adventure novels centered around a fictional heroine, Dr. Angela Lovemore, and her love interest, Dash McMahon, who is portrayed by cover model Alan Caprison. Her publisher, Beth Hatten, insists that she must embark on a book tour with Alan to promote her latest work, despite becoming reclusive since the death of her husband. After a disastrous start, mostly due to the popularity of Alan's Dash persona, Loretta is kidnapped by Abigail Fairfax, a billionaire who realizes that Loretta has based her books on actual historic research she did with her late archaeologist husband. He has discovered a lost city on a remote Atlantic island and is convinced that this is the location of the "Crown of Fire", a priceless treasure. When Loretta declines to help decipher an ancient map to the treasure, Fairfax, who fears the site will be destroyed by an active volcano, chloroforms Loretta and takes her to the island. Alan, who is secretly enamored with Loretta, witnesses her kidnapping. He recruits Jack Trainer, a former Navy SEAL turned CIA operative, to meet him on the island and coordinate a rescue attempt. Jack, with no assistance from Alan, breaches Fairfax's compound and frees Loretta, but is shot in the head before they can make it to the airport, forcing Loretta and Alan to escape into the jungle.
