A city that disappeared over-night. Sphinxes in the jungles of the Yucatan. An overgrown Mesoamerican temple with ancient Chinese script chiseled into the stone. All of these elements come together in the greatest adventure yet for Dr. Kathlyn Trent and her husband, world-class Egyptologist Dr. Marcus Burton. In her latest assignment, Kathlyn goes to the Yucatan to assist in a growing mystery; Dr. Christopher Murphy, one of the top minds in Mesoamerican studies, has something of an enigma on his hands. Strange legends and rumors of sphinxes in the jungle create a puzzle that is as deadly as it is baffling.

Kathlyn soon finds herself fighting for her life, both professionally and personally. With her husband's help, she is able to overcome the web of complications at home and is once again lured back to Dr. Murphy's jungle dig to help solve the great mystery…why did the lost city of La Tierra Dorada de los Jaguares vanish in a single, horrible night?

Valley of the Shadow
Summary
Get ready for action-packed romance with archaeologist Dr. Kathlyn Trent and her husband, Egyptologist Marcus Burton. In the first book of the series, meet Dr. Kathlyn Trent. A cross between Indiana Jones and The Crocodile Hunter, Dr. Trent has made a name for herself as a Media Archaeologist. Beautiful, intelligent and educated, she is one of the most famous faces in the world. Her television specials bring millions of viewers as she tackles subjects that most credible archaeologists won't touch. But beneath the flash and hype, she has a true gift. A "sixth sense", this gift has helped her locate mystical and wonderful things all over the world. Whether or not people believe in her gift, her results speak for themselves. Because of her ability to find the unfindable, Dr. Trent is called in to assist the floundering dig of one of the world's top Egyptologists, Dr. Marcus Burton. Dr. Burton has a highly publicized dig in the Valley of the Kings, and Kathlyn is met with animosity the moment she sets foot on his dig. Tall, dark, and ruggedly gorgeous, he has no desire to attract the attention she brings. But the excitement they come to share as they explore long-lost pharaoh's tomb destroys the animosity in favor of an emotional bond that cannot be broken. Elements of intrigue endanger their lives and create chaos amidst their blooming romance, and the situation soon explodes in a running gun battle amongst the ruins of ancient Egyptian temples. It takes all of Kathlyn and Marcus' strength to keep each other alive.
