Why in the world would her uncle send her a bejeweled golden scarab?
When Maggie Edwards opened the mysterious package from her archeologist uncle, Oliver Keene, she had no clue what it was for. At first, she couldn’t understand why he had sent her something so obviously valuable when he had never done so before. Then, she read the cryptic note hinting that he’s in trouble, and urging her to protect this vital artifact.
Fearing for her uncle’s life, and wondering if someone would eventually come after her, Maggie begins researching the mysterious object her uncle sent her. As questions without simple answers pile up around her, Maggie is ambushed by Henry Taylor, who claims to be a close friend of her uncle’s. Handsome, educated, and always ready with a smile, Maggie can’t help but want to trust him.
But she also can’t help but wonder if there is more than meets the eye?
Henry had no idea where and how Oliver disappeared, but, wherever it is, he knows his friend is in trouble. He would do anything for him, and when Maggie insists on accompanying him around the globe, he’s more than happy to share his adventure with her.
But when the truth surrounding the artifact leads them to someplace off-limits and completely dangerous, will Henry have what it takes to help save Oliver and keep himself and Maggie alive too?
