Resumen del Editor

India Summers is a librarian and a talented historian, so when a stranger asks her opinion on an ancient coin she is happy to oblige, but when the same man is murdered less than an hour later, it soon becomes apparent that there is far more to the situation than meets the eye.

Recognising her unique talents for historical reference, she is quickly recruited by Brandon Walker, a Security Service intelligence officer investigating the strange disappearance of a very special young girl.

As the facts unravel, they realise that an ancient artefact linked to the cult of the Vestal Virgins from ancient Rome may hold the key to her whereabouts and Brandon draws on India's vast historical knowledge to unravel clues that date right back through history to the time of the great flood.

Slowly, the full horror and mind blowing truth of what they have discovered becomes clear and they become involved in a race against time in a horrific and shocking finale.

Overly layered mystery, not enough history.

I was so intrigued by this novel. Ancient history meets modern mystery? YES! Sign me up!

However, the modern mystery is a bit convoluted and goes on too long. One person goes here, they eat food, another goes there, more food eating, one gets shot for no reason, lengthy descriptions of food, another starts torture shooting someone, someone goes clothes shopping, women get raped (fade-to-back or mentioned), etc. The threads between the stories became more frayed as the modern elements kept adding unnecessary layers.

I wasn't a huge fan of the main characters. India is smart, but she's also immature. And everyone asks really dumb questions. When its clear someone is about to get shot, there's the typical "what do you plan to do with me?" "you're not really going to shoot me are you?" multiple questions of this nature until you want to smack the character over the head to see how dense they truly are. Some trimming of throw-away lines would have been welcome.

I'll probably Audible "read" more of the series because Egypt is on the horizon (book 3) but I hope the plots of future novels are tightened up. This is a genre I really enjoy, and I hope there's more character depth in book 2.
