Ancient artifacts and contemporary danger collide

Set against an ancient Mayan prediction of apocalypse, Beautiful Sacrifice brings together a committed archaeologist and a former Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer. Their search for valuable South American artifacts places the past in direct contact with present-day threats, while a romantic relationship develops alongside the central mission. The novel’s suspense rests on the potential consequences of objects whose value extends beyond the archaeological: in the wrong hands, they could unleash deadly disorder. This is a romantic-suspense setup built around artifact recovery, cultural history, danger, and attraction under pressure.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adult readers of romantic suspense with an archaeological angle
  • Fans of artifact-recovery adventures and ancient-prophecy stakes
  • Readers who enjoy romance woven into a danger-driven mission

Perennial New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Lowell boldly puts the romance back into romantic suspense with Beautiful Sacrifice--a story of passion and intrigue centered around the ancient Mayan prediction of the apocalyptic end of everything. Lowell's thrillingly imaginative tale unites a dedicated female archaeologist with a former Immigration and Customs Enforcement Officer on a mission to recover priceless South American artifacts that could bring deadly chaos into our world. Beautiful Sacrifice is action, suspense, and love on a bestselling par with Lisa Gardner, Linda Howard, Jayne Ann Krentz, and Nora Roberts...and exactly the sort of romantic adventure that inspired Johanna Lindsey to declare, "Lowell is great!"
