Publisher's Summary

When historian Jaya Jones receives a mysterious package containing a jewel-encrusted artifact, she discovers the secrets of a lost Indian treasure may be hidden in a Scottish legend. But she's not the only one on the trail.

From San Francisco to the Highlands of Scotland, Jaya must evade a shadowy stalker as she follows hints from the hastily scrawled note to a remote archaeological dig. Helping her decipher the cryptic clues are her magician best friend, a devastatingly handsome art historian with something to hide, and a charming archaeologist running for his life. When a member of the dig's crew is murdered, Jaya must figure out which of the scholars vying for her affections might be the love of her life - and which one is a killer.

Excellent Series

I loved this book. I found the characters and narration fine to follow.
I love the main characters in this series and the unique twist on their backgrounds. This history is interesting as well.
I have listened the the entire series before and am going through for the second time.
I would love another Jaya Adventure!

OK story. Narration not great.

I have other books by this author and I like her work. The narrator, not so much. Many of the characters had English or Scottish accents but the best the narrator could do was a kind of generic not-american. The book would have been so much more enjoyable with a professional reader.

Confused story

Too much characters. Hard to follow. Some characters are difficult to understand because of their accent that the narrator is using. Did not really appreciated this book. I prefer The Alchemist serie from Pandian.
