All
archaeology student Jane Barnaby had to do was deliver a box of
pottery shards to her professor at his dig site, along with his new
car. Yes, his office was in Oxfordshire, and his dig site was in
Spain, a trip of 1,400 miles across three countries and two bodies of
water. Still, it should have been simple.
That
is, until everything went wrong.
Now,
Jane has the wrong box and is being chased by thieves who want it and
aren't particular about how they get what they want.
Add
to that, she's picked up a pair of passengers who both claim they can
help her get her professor's pottery back and return the artifacts to
their rightful owner. If only she knew who was working with the
thieves and who she can trust in this high-stakes game of finders
keepers.

“You
know that expression ‘if looks could kill’ really is just an
expression, right? You can stare at me like that all night if you
want, but I’m not changing my mind.”
When
she’d told him her new plan, Jane had worried, just for a moment or
two, that Tom might try to grab the wheel or do something else
equally drastic. She wasn’t sure what would have happened if he
had; fighting for control of the car with a hostile passenger had not
come up in her Driver’s Ed classes back in high school.
Forgoing
violence, he’d settled for stunned disbelief, followed by an
extended string of what Jane had to admit was pretty creative
cursing. She’d smiled through all of it, and she kept smiling when
he changed tactics to a one-sided staring contest. But it was
starting to become tiresome. His response to her words, though, was
equally annoying.
“You
are insane. You understand that, don’t you? You are committing a
crime. You are making me a party to crimes. Do you honestly not
realize that?”
The
smile fell from her face, and Jane sighed. “What crime?”
Really, she thought, she shouldn’t have to explain this. It wasn’t
that complicated. “I was told to pick up a box in the basement of
the Institute, and drive it to Professor Welldon in Mallorca. That’s
still what I’m doing.”
Jane
glanced over, mainly out of curiosity. She wondered precisely what
color his face was. It appeared to have passed straight through the
usual visual spectrum and was well on its way towards ultraviolet.
With great effort, he managed to keep his voice almost under control,
though. “It’s the wrong box! It’s our artifacts, not your
pottery pieces!”
“Yes,” she agreed. “But I only
have your word on that. You don’t have a badge, or a warrant or
even a nasty letter to prove it.”

Jane
Barnaby had everything going her way: a prestigious internship at the
Museum of Natural History, a fantastic Upper West Side sublet
apartment, and helping plan her newly-engaged college friend's
wedding.
Until a casual lunch with her friend’s fiancé set off alarm bells, and sent her digging into the rabbit hole that is his past.
When that rabbit hole leads Jane and her on-again, off-again boyfriend to the English countryside, uncovering secrets dating back to World War 2, searching for priceless art treasures looted by the Nazis, and fighting off the thieves who will kill to get those treasures for themselves, will they discover the truth, or lose their lives?
