Hidden Uriel

Ten years ago he gave her a Cartier necklace and vanished. Tonight, armed men want it back.

Emily Mira spent a decade turning heartbreak into credentials — PhD in history, real-estate license she uses to keep the lights on, and a ruthless refusal to say the name of the prom-night boy who told her he'd come back and didn't. She's finally celebrating her graduation when Ted Vet San and four of his men lock down the Gainesville club she's in.

He wants the necklace. The one she never takes off.

Dane Pearce has been Uriel Delligatti for eight years — new name, Harvard tenure, and zero intention of ever touching his murderous adoptive father's fortune again. But the necklace he put around Emily's throat at seventeen was never just jewelry. It's a key. To a Paris vault. To the stolen Irish Crown Jewels. To a legacy Edmond Pearce hoarded his entire life.

Ted knows. Uriel knows. Emily is about to.

From a Florida nightclub to a London safehouse to a catacomb under Paris — the only way out is together.

Second chance. Academic hero. International treasure hunt. The Indiana Jones book in the series — with ten years of unfinished business.
