Overview

A treasure hunt in paradise to search for an object more priceless than any gold or jewels. Four young people find love and acceptance in their marriages while being sent on a mission to look for a long lost treasure of the Hebrew people. They journey together to the Virgin Islands to search for the lost prayer shawl of Jesus, accompanied by a mysterious man who may know where exactly it is hidden. They carry out their mission unaware that they are being pursued by a deadly and vicious cult, who wish to use the shawl to heal a dangerous man. When the heinous pirate Henry Morgan sacked the City of Panama in the seventeenth century, he didn't realize that he was stealing not only a treasure of gold and jewels but also a prayer shawl which had once belonged to Jesus himself. A treasure of gold and jewels was buried with the shawl, which was hidden inside another fabulous treasure. Two young couples accompany a friend who knows where the treasure is hidden, and whose life can possibly be redeemed by the ancient cloak. To complicate the search further, they are pursued by a Cult whose dying leader has a mysterious power to subjugate people and make them his slaves.
