Someone must be trying to intimidate Rose and scare her out of testifying in an upcoming case on looted Mayan artifacts. But when Tink tries to flush-out the stalker, things take a far more dangerous turn, and she finds herself taking her best friend’s place to follow the looters’ trail to Cancun.Deep in the jungle and far from civilization, Tink must decide who she can trust as she tries to unearth the ones responsible behind the pilfering and bloodshed—and still make it out alive.

"This energetic series launch from bestseller Bohnhoff introduces San Francisco PI Gina Miyoko. A tough, sassy, and relatable investigator, Gina drives a Harley, packs a baby blue Magnum, and is trained in the martial arts. Her rich backstory and family life adds unusual depth to a fun story.

"An entertaining debut introducing PI Gina “Tinkerbell” Miyoko. Gina is a unique series lead, but she sweeps across the pages like an adrenalin-fueled soul sister of Janet Evanovich’s flamboyant characters, presented in an equally biting and outrageous narrative that turns on a dime. A promising start to an exciting new series with plenty of crossover YA appeal."

"Bohnhoff’s The Antiquities Hunter is a fast, fun ride into the fresh world of high stakes, black market artifacts trading. Her cast of fantastically unique characters sucked me in from the start. I especially loved Tink—a sharp, witty, but still soft-around-the-edges female protagonist who is tiny but fierce—and I can’t wait to see what trouble she gets into next."
"Witty, feisty, sassy—a character to give Philip Marlowe a run for his money any day of the week—Gina 'Tink' Miyoko is my new favorite heroine. With whip-smart crackling dialogue and a plot that could turn on a sixpence, this is a fine and exciting debut and a thrilling piece of modern crime writing. Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff, I salute you."
