Funny, smart and deeply delicious. Amy Poehler Witty and acerbic, Myers debut is humorous and sharply written, as if Aubrey Plazas April Ludgate from Parks and Recreation decided to write a sun-drenched novel about feminism, friendship, and archeology. Booklist
On a remote archeological site in Greece, the mythic home of the first Olympics, four women discover an unusual artifact. Its a piece of history that definitely shouldnt exist. And for the head archaeologist in charge, a relic himself, it means somethings gone horribly wrong.
Elise, Kara, Z and Patty all find themselves digging here together, but they couldnt be farther apart. Karas a polished conservator calling off her wedding. Patty and her bowl cut are desperate for love. Millennial Z just got dumped and fired yet again. And Elise, their star excavator, is a lone wolf about to go rogue.
To figure out what theyre really digging for, and to topple the man who wants to hide their history, these dirt-crusted colleagues have to become what theyve avoided for yearsfriends. If they put their own messes aside for one summer, they might just make the discovery of a lifetime.
