Tears of the Jaguar

Read Tears of the Jaguar Storyline:

Six months ago, museum curator Deborah Miller had never heard of Ek
Balam, an obscure Mayan archaeological site known for its carved
figures. Now here she is, having traded Atlanta’s urban jungle for a
remote village in Mexico’s Yucatan, tasked with overseeing Ek Balam’s
excavation. But when a sudden rainstorm causes a partial collapse at the
site, an unexpected treasure is unearthed: a collection of rough-cut
rubies hidden from the world for hundreds of years—and very out-of-place
in the Yucatan. It is a find of immeasurable value, one that Deborah
vows to protect—and yet is powerless to prevent from being stolen soon
after its discovery. Determined to retrieve the stones, she sets out to
trace their complex history across four centuries and two continents,
from Mexico to northern England where the jewels once played a harrowing
role in the Lancashire witch trials of 1612. But Deborah is not the
only one searching for the stones; close on her heels are
archaeologists, occultists, and one very determined arms dealer, all of
whom will stop at nothing, not even murder, to claim the prize for
themselves.
