Standing before the Temple of Ak’ab K’iin in the Yucatán jungle, archaeologist Skyler Jace can’t bring herself to believe that her best friend Margot’s fatal fall was an accident. A shaman reinforces her belief, but she is skeptical of the terrifying scenario that he asserts really happened.

Skyler has flown from Egypt to Yucatán to complete an academic paper on behalf of her deceased friend, but the dig’s new director, handsome and wealthy Antonio de Lorca, resents her intrusion. And that’s not her only challenge. Another dead body is discovered at the site, and, after too many harrowing incidents, Skyler realizes she may be next. Why did someone kill Margot and why do they believe Skyler is a threat? A small community of archaeologists and their wealthy and powerful donors limit the list of suspects, but motives abound from professional ambition and personal jealousies to covering up a criminal organization.

As if that’s not enough, Skyler must emotionally grapple with hints in Margot’s diary reflecting a side of her friend she had never seen — and whether an ancient Mayan incantation invoking the ‘night sun’ is more truth than myth.
