Bolivian-Argentinian Inez Olivera belongs to the glittering upper society of nineteenth century Buenos Aires\, and l ike the rest of the world\, the town is steeped in old world magic that&rs quo\;s been largely left behind or forgotten. Inez has everything a girl m ight want\, except for the one thing she yearns the most: her globetrottin g parents&mdash\;who frequently leave her behind.
\nWhen she receive s word of their tragic deaths\, Inez inherits their massive fortune and a mysterious guardian\, an archeologist in partnership with his Egyptian bro ther-in-law. Yearning for answers\, Inez sails to Cairo\, bringing her ske tch pads and an ancient golden ring her father sent to her for safekeeping before he died. But upon her arrival\, the old world magic tethered to th e ring pulls her down a path where she soon discovers there&rsquo\;s more to her parent&rsquo\;s disappearance than what her guardian led her to bel ieve.
\nWith her guardian&rsquo\;s infuriatingly handsome assistant thwarting her at every turn\, Inez must rely on ancient magic to uncover t he truth about her parent&rsquo\;s disappearance&mdash\;or risk becoming a pawn in a larger game that will kill her.
