Returning to her dig in Mosul Iraq after being abducted to the jungles of Meso-America, noted archaeologist Anastasia Nedved receives a mysterious e-mail asking for help from an old colleague searching for the Lost City of Gold somewhere in the Amazon. A city reported by the Conquistadores to be guarded by mystical headhunters. She also learns that Sergeant Terry, the soldier who complicated her life while rescuing her in Meso-America has miraculously survived and returned to Mosul to heal from his wounds. Ana needs to convince Sergeant Terry to guard her once again. This time in the Amazon jungle. There would be no rest for the man who moved so quickly and fought so skillfully to protect her before. An Aspie, as well as a master of aikido, his movements and primal instincts were so similar to the feared jaguar that the natives had named him "Yaguara." But Terry's biggest obstacle isn't his health. During their previous trek, he and Ana learned a lot about each other, as well as themselves. They bickered and taunted each other constantly. Neither was prepared to face the fact that they might truly care about each other. So follow the two main characters and chuckle at their never ending battle of wits, from confrontations with Amazonian headhunters, to the barren West Texas plains, the source of a mysterious scourge of mass destruction bent on destroying a global power. They must stop the sinister leader of the paramilitary organization behind it. The Good Guys include the big Texas FBI agent Freddie Larsen who speaks more Texan than English; the 400 pound Orpheus, an Interpol agent with his own agenda; Moses, a goodhearted headhunter; and Kuruk, a West Texas Apache on his own mission. A unique, fast-paced blend of a thriller plot and humorous characters.
