Aprašymas

GABRIELA ROSE, DISCOVERY AGENT EXTRAORDINAIRE, CAN FIND JUST ABOUT ANYTHING . . .

Too bad she can't lose her gorgeous-but-infuriating ex-husband Rafer Jones. And now he needs her help. His cousin, Harley, is in trouble . . . and the always resourceful, usually armed, and sometimes dangerous Gabriela is the only person who can save him.

As the president of a high-flying private bank, Harley invested an astronomical amount of money to insure some of the world's most priceless artefacts, including the Rosetta Stone and an Ancient Egyptian, solid-gold sarcophagus. But recently, these insured pieces have started disappearing. And, worse, there's no paper trail that proves Harley was being directed to make these risky investments. Unless the artwork is recovered, he's going to jail.

To solve the crime and save Harley, Gabriela must find the missing art and the people who took them. From New York to London to Cairo to Italy, she'll encounter corruption, threats, murder, and a cabal of powerful men who have no idea what Gabriela Rose will do when she's on the trail of treasure taken for ransom.
