The Honeymooners — K.T. Tomb

Will Charlie and Ella Colton break up an antiquities smuggling ring on their honeymoon? In K.T. Tomb's THE HONEYMOONERS, when newlywed archaeologists Charlie and Ella Colton head for the Cayman Islands, at a cultural dance performance, they spot what looks like a Mayan jade necklace from 500 A.D. They start poking around for information about the artifact, and learn that an antiquities thief has been switching out national treasures with forgeries. When a private antiquities collector hires Charlie and Ella to find the real necklace, they take time out of their honeymoon to investigate the growing spate of artifact forgeries connected with the Museum of Ancient Cultures. Unexpected temptation heats up the case's intrigue when the beautiful, rich prime suspect tries to hire them to smuggle the authentic artifact back to the U.S., to its "rightful owner." The stunning discovery of an unusual Spanish gold coin raises more questions than it answers. Can Charlie and Ella work together to get to the bottom of this artifact smuggling mystery without getting themselves killed on their honeymoon? K.T. Tomb shakes up her archaeologist investigation novels with a little light romance and a sizzling tropical setting in THE HONEYMOONERS, in which the colorful, secretive locals aren't quite what they seem and the disappearances of priceless artifacts are just the beginning of the twists and turns in this fast-paced adventure mystery thriller.
