June Jenson, an accomplished Oxford professor, has spent her life trying to get out from under the shadow of her infamous grandfather: a renowned archaeologist accused of stealing a relic during an excavation at Sutton-Hoo. When a secret alliance recruits June to guard priceless artifacts she realizes that this is her chance to contribute to the history she loves and rid herself of the cloud of suspicion that her family has lived under for so long. But, when the artifact June is commissioned to guard turns out to be the same relic her grandfather was accused of stealing− a relic he has consistently claimed never existed − her carefully laid plans of family redemption are a bit shot. Now, with the aid of her accused grandfather who suffers from early onset Alzheimer’s, and a chauffeur who’s looking for a scandal to make him famous, June must race to discover the truth of the shield and what really happened at Sutton-Hoo all those years ago.

June Jenson is back, and she’s in more trouble than ever. Still adjusting to her family's recent exoneration from the Archeological world (they stole an artifact, caused a ruckus... it's a long story), June decides to embark on a press tour to repair the image of her employer (Oxford University) and her (somewhat crazy, but altogether loveable) Grandfather. When the opportunity arises to go to America to find a lost treasure belonging to the notorious outlaw Butch Cassidy, June know's it isn't something she can shy away from - even if she wasn't exactly the one who was assigned by Oxford to the task. Along with the Professor, Dr. Cooke, and her emotionally-stilted boyfriend Griffin, June embarks on a treasure hunt in the wild mountains of Colorado. June hopes to make the discovery of a lifetime... that is, before anyone at Oxford realizes she's left the country.

June Jenson is famous, though not entirely for the reasons she’d hoped. She's the co-host of Britain's popular Blast From the Past archeological television show with her grandfather who suffers from Alzheimer’s and his old Oxford chum, Dr Cooke. Hanging out with two elderly men all day isn't exactly what she'd dreamed of doing with her life but it pays the bills. Well, almost. Plus, she's under contract so really she doesn't have a lot of choice in the matter. It's no wonder June jumps at the opportunity to travel to Egypt to chase down clues to the lost ring of King Solomon, a ring rumored to have divine powers and given to the King by God himself. But Egypt poses more danger than she could have imagined - especially when a crooked artifacts dealer puts a bullseye on her forehead. With the Egyptian mob after her, her grandfather wandering off at every opportunity, and her boyfriend Griffin trying to prevent them all from getting shot, June must choose between the two things she holds most dear: history and family.
