Dr. Saylor Oz does not believe her best friend Gwen, who's found dead in the river, committed suicide without her having seen the signs. They'd been friends since childhood, protecting each other when no one else would. They knew everything about each other. Now, Saylor's roommate is starting to have the same thoughts, especially since their lives are becoming more dangerous by the minute.

Saylor knew Gwen felt borderline paranoid about her work, so she always respected her privacy. She understood that as soon as Gwen felt comfortable, she'd fill in the details. She was getting excited about a project she was working on, and now she's gone. All Saylor has to work with to discover what's going on is a cryptic poem and her own instincts. Can she solve the mystery before her time runs out?

This book is full of action and mystery with a touch of local and ancient history. A very interesting read.
