The darkness might feel different down here, deeper and hungrier than the night, but shadows do not posses a mind of their own…

 

 Evangeline Gray dreams of becoming an Archaeologist, but first she must complete her studies. She risks the wrath of her superiors and starts an excavation site at the location of her uncle’s disappearance, intending to continue his life’s work. It is here that she makes her first solo discovery. 

Two ancient tombs. 

The first tomb is rich with dozens of funerary items surrounding a decorated sarcophagus. The second tomb is ten times larger than the first, but there are no funerary items. No signs pointing to who it belongs to. Worst of all, the sarcophagus inside is empty.

Evangeline’s discovery is quickly threatened when her academic rival, Kai Luv, returns from studying abroad. Her superiors deliver an ultimatum: work with Kai to excavate the tombs, or be removed from the project entirely. 

With no choice but to work with Kai, Evangeline is thrust into a dangerous quest. But is the danger in unearthing the secrets of her discovery, or in the form of Kai Luv? Because Evangeline is starting to feel more than just contempt for her rival.
