What are those little birds on my covered deck doing? I put two hanging plants up really high in the corners of my deck for a couple of trailing plants I propagated this year. Now I see little birds dancing around in them. Are they checking it out to build a little nest for Winter? That most certainly would kill the plants I worked so hard to grow, but it would be super cute. UGH.

A treasure lost to time, a string of stolen artifacts, and one archaeologist determined to expose the truth.
The year is 1521, and Tenochtitlán burns. Wracked by plague and war, the majestic Aztec empire begins to crumble. As their beloved capital city falls to the ruthless Spaniards and hordes of vengeful tribes, the Aztecs make a last-ditch attempt to secretly save their heritage before it’s lost to the sands of time forever.
Meanwhile in the modern day, a string of high-profile robberies lays waste to archaeological sites and museums across Mesoamerica, overshadowed by a brewing nationalistic fervor which threatens to topple already fragile countries. Rumors say the artifacts hold the secret to a legendary myth — The Seven Cities of Cibola — which has concealed countless treasures for centuries.
Faced with unravelling the mysteries of both the present and the past, aspiring archaeologist Nick LaBounty embarks on a dangerous mission to solve a long-held family mystery and discover the truth behind the stolen artifacts.
He soon finds his fate irreversibly entangled with a civilization from over five hundred years ago. But time is running out, and the future of both a fabulous treasure — and all Central America — teeters precariously in the balance.
