"How many anthropologists usually die at your conferences?" This is the question Detective Roberto Salinas asks Dr. Claire Aguila after two mysterious deaths at a gathering of Maya scholars in Merida, Yucatán. When a souvenir vendor in a nearby town is murdered, the faculty members of the newly formed Keane College Mayanist Program find themselves under scrutiny from Mexican authorities and U.S. Customs agents. Professor Claire Aguila becomes a reluctant police collaborator as she confronts the possibility that someone close to her might be a murderer. Claire's knowledge of Mayan culture unites her with Detective Salinas in the investigation; however, a long-ago romance with the detective complicates things, forcing Claire's colleagues to question her loyalties.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Cindy L. Hull is an anthropologist and Professor Emeritus from Grand Valley State University. Her research interests have taken her to Mexico, Micronesia, and rural Michigan. She has published two ethnographies: Katun: A Twenty-Year Journey with the Maya; and Chippewa Lake: A Community in Search of an Identity. In retirement, Cindy has pursued her love of mystery novels by writing two murder mysteries, introducing her protagonist, Dr. Claire Aguila. Cindy's first novel, Human Sacrifice, takes place in the Yucatán Peninsula, where she and her husband lived and studied among the Maya. Her newest mystery, Culture Shock, explores the mysterious world of the Florida retirement community. Alas, Cindy has not succumbed to the allure of life in a retirement community. Instead, she happily resides with her husband in Traverse City, Michigan.
