The unconventional Tru Palmer doesn't just do geological work for a powerful oil company--she's a dowser, able to sense energies, and even glimpses of history, off of rocks and minerals. So, when she finds a cache of ancient tiles in a remote Nubian village, she can tell that there's something special about them, apparently special enough that someone assaults their guardian and steals them.
Feeling partly responsible for their loss, Tru tries to stay ahead of company man Griffin Sinclair as she tracks the stones to Southern France, where she finds more than she bargained for: a group of women working together to uncover a hidden history; a place of great power; and an important family whose secrets may just kill her
Archaeologist Veronica Bright has a thirst to prove herself to the world. Her business, Discovery, Inc., a company devoted to the recovery of ancient artifacts, has done very well, but it's still not enough. In the end only one thing can bring back her reputation as a legitimate scientistshe must uncover evidence that supports her theory of ancient mythology being based on truth. Dr. Simon Owens walked in the doors of Discovery, Inc. with a solid gold mouse in his pocket, and an offer to pay her generously for her expertise in helping him locate the legendary Midas Stonea mythological gem with the abilities to turn anything into gold. Veronica was intrigued, but not convinced. But once the artifact tests as authentic, how can she resist the possibility to uncover a piece of history that can restore not only her reputation and that of her colleagues, but make her rich beyond her wildest dreams? Time is running out and the risk may be too high. Simon doesn't want her along, his past is too clean and she doesn't trust him. On an adventure like this, things can go from dangerous to lethal in an instant. Will he guard her back or run when faced with adversity and the possibility of breaking a few minor laws? And will the powers of the stone turn divine or deadly?
