Eugen Brunner fled Nazi Germany for Ecuador and devoted the majority of his life researching the country's history and exploring its jungles, rivers, mountains and ocean. He was a man of many tales, yet withheld many more secrets. A renowned explorer of the mysterious Llanganati Mountains, Brunner’s trials, tribulations and discoveries on a fifty-year quest for Inca treasure, portions of Atahualpa’s ransom known as Valverde’s gold, are related in his own words. Brunner seemed to possess an uncanny ability of knowing at what point in his stories to leave out details and information, protecting secrets, loved ones and himself. Very little leaked out about Brunner’s family, European past, involvement with the Nazis, CIA, or Llanganati discoveries, until now ... a quarter of a century after his death. This story discloses Brunner’s personal secrets and evidence supporting his conclusion that the cache of Inca gold he sought was hidden on Cerro Hermoso in the Llanganati Mountains. One of the last true explorers of the Llanganati, a picture is painted of an adventurer and historian, not a stereotypical treasure hunter. Even so, Brunner’s paranoia appears more than justified!
