Ancient Deceptions by Joanne Pence

Ancient Deceptions by Joanne Pence, the fourth book in Pence's Ancient Secrets series, pulls threads from previous books in a way that continues the lives of Michael Rempart and his friends and family from the first three books while introducing new characters who may or may not survive. Ancient Deceptions explores history and ancient mythologies with a new twist as it centers around an archeological dig in Ukraine. Pence whips up a frenzy of supernatural intrigue that whips the characters from country to country as they fight to find and protect their loved ones all while trying to reconcile their own insecurities and deal with personal issues. The dig site's secrets are as symbolic for the characters' struggles as they are real for those uncovering them and suffering from the consequences. Deception and truth often get mixed up in a soup that sours the savory as the characters try to figure out what is reality and what is fantasy in this intriguing and engaging story.
