Enjoyable read, looking forward to seeing a followup :) The story is about three characters - an archaeologist who is looked down upon by her peers, a nerdy entrepreneur with...questionable morality, and a former pro tennis player. The three come together as part of a small business, Rust and Relics, an antique and rescued items company. When the original two members head to Prescott, Arizona, to do some cave exploring, they stumble across a gruesome murder. Death has come to the small town, along with two suspicious guys with sticky fingers.For the most part, this is more mystery than fantasy. I got the feeling while reading it that that's how it was approached being written, the fantasy worked in to the mystery instead of the other way around. I normally read mostly fantasy, and this was a nice change of pace. It's much different from the Emperor's Edge stories, so if you're expecting that from this, it might not be the best book for you. Lindsay Buroker is great at writing these stories that draw readers in to worlds similar to our own reality, and I hope we get another story following the Rust and Relics crew around :)
