About this series
Sometimes the demons of stories take on human faces.
When Poe Baxter and her friend Beattie travel to Lima, Peru, to hunt down a rare collection of Peruvian folktales, the two women find themselves mixed up in a game of deceit that echoes the legend of the chullachaqui. Soon, they're having trouble telling truth from lie, even when their lives are at stake.
Can Poe and Beattie discern what is real from what is myth before it's too late?

But as soon as she and her best friend Beattie begin researching the whereabouts of this supposed literary treasure, they come upon another mystery that takes their attention and puts them in peril. What is a rare book worth? A human life or two?

Travel to Syria isn't always the safest choice, but it isn't the political tension that's the danger for Poe. No, the danger is linked to her latest book acquisition. Poe Baxter once heard a man say if he could travel anywhere in the world, he'd visit Damascus, and she hasn't thought about a visit to the city since. So when she hears that a rare codex from the 1st century has come onto the market there, she and Beattie book the next flight to see if they can buy it. Yet, when they arrive, they find there's much more at stake than just a rare scroll. Can centuries of secrets be unearthed safely? Or do they need to be buried again?
