Emperor's Tomb
About this ebook
Livi Talbot is at last recovered and ready for more work just as a viral tabloid story about her misbegotten youth sends her across the globe with her family in tow. She’s supposed to be on a job for the agency, but when West disappears on another mission, she’s free to help a friend in need of backup for an artifact heist in Australia.
But there’s another treasure hunter with the same target, and this simple retrieval is a hell of a lot more complicated than Livi’s prepared for. The only thing more dangerous than a rich collector is a true believer who will steal, blackmail, and even kill in their quest to reach the legendary land of Mount Penglai, a mythical island of immortals—and Livi’s the person they believe can get them there.
Most of Livi’s usual team is AWOL and now she’s reluctant allies with her enemies. If she puts a toe out of line, a jail cell awaits her—and that’s the best-case scenario. At worst, a bounty on her head. The prize for success is immortality itself, but Livi will settle for just getting out—and returning to her beloved daughter—alive…

About the author
Skyla Dawn Cameron has been writing approximately forever.
Her early storytelling days were spent acting out strange horror/fairy tales with the help of her many dolls, and little has changed except that she now keeps those stories on paper. She signed her first book contract at age twenty-one for River, a unique werewolf tale, which was released to critical and reader praise alike and won her the 2007 EPPIE Award for Best Fantasy. She now has multiple series on the go to keep her busy.
In the name of research, she has planned—but not taken—extensive trips all over the world, learned to pick locks, watched dozens of hours of surgeries, and has undergone private investigator training. Her internet search terms have likely put her on numerous government watchlists, but she swears she is not actively trying to murder anyone other than her characters. Really.
Skyla is a fifth-generation crazy cat lady who lives in southern Ontario, where she writes a lot of books, works as a freelance designer, embroiders swear words onto fabric, and plays video games.
