Jackie was a normal teenage girl until she was zapped through a portal to a fantastical world of elves and sylvan and magic and other remarkable people and things. So what else do you do but go to school, get a job, and start working at a prestigious history museum as a research historian. Along with her friend Anaraxis, she's pulled into a world of gray market antiquities dealers and train robbers.

Barely escaping with their life from vampiric pursuers, Jackie and Anaraxis find themselves dropped onto another world completely, unsure how to get back to civilization.

When they're brought to an archeological dig, secrets of the artifacts that have haunted their summer so far start to unfold. This sends them on a cross- and inter- world journey not just to get home, but to finally find the bottom of everything once and for all.
