"The Dirty Sweatpants of the Lost Colony, a new novel by JM Hoover, is a page-turner of a mystery. The story starts with a grad student and an old map and ends with... treasure? Well-written and fun to read. JM Hoover has done it again I'm already waiting for her next story to drop."- Margaret Shelton Kelly Graham is just an ordinary graduate student slogging through her dead end job sorting maps in Carolina Tech's basement until she finds what might (possibly, if you squint at it just right) be an antique treasure map. When her greedy boss gets wind of her discovery she forces Kelly into a treasure hunt with a belligerently handsome PhD student and a goofy jock. Immediately their snooping stirs up trouble and plunges them into a family feud that spans generations. With Kelly's job (and life) on the line, can she find the treasure of the Lost Colony?
