From the New York Times bestselling author of the Death on Demand Mysteries and the Bailey Ruth Ghost Novels comes an intriguing, dangerous mystery set in the world of international art theft. Egyptologist Sheila Ramsay develops a newfound interest in MesoAmerican affairs after meeting an outspoken--and attractive--Mexico City curator, a harsh critic of museums that deal in stolen art.

And amid the splendor of Mexico's ancient ruins and treacherous hillsides, Sheila will realize that there's no one she can trust...… (more)

fast paced thriller set mostly in Mexico, where an Egyptologist from her museum is sent to return a valuable Aztec manuscript to its owners, but then the bad guys turn up ( )
  nancynova | Feb 28, 2023 |
Synopsis: Sara Ramsey accepts a 'free' trip to Mexico city to deliver a book for the museum in which she works. Her real goal is to renew the acquaintance of a firebrand museum director. She is invited to stay with the wealthy family to whom she delivers the book. Her stay almost immediately becomes a nightmare rife with death threats, secrets, and shadowy figures.
Review: This is amazingly trite and poorly edited, which is really surprising from such a great author. ( )
