The Spade of Apocatequil can raise the dead and grant immortality—and it’s been stolen!
When supernatural agents Riley Perez and Jason, her partner at the clandestine government agency DUE, are given the task of tracking down the magical artifact, they discover that the culprit may be one of the workers at an archaeological dig at Shady Shores. Is it John Braden, the head archaeologist on-site, who was involved in the original discovery of the spade? Or is it Danny Roget, the anthropologist, who claims that there have been strange sightings? Riley and Jason’s hunt for the spade is endangered by a rash of sudden, unexplainable deaths of people involved in the dig. Together with Cameron Delaney, the intriguing alpha werewolf who runs Cerberus Security, the company in charge of protecting the archaeologists at the dig, Riley and Jason must find the spade before it can be used to destroy the world!
Interview with Riley Perez from Digging Up the Past
Where are you from? Grapevine Texas
What is your main purpose in life? Catch the bad guys that the mortal cops can’t deal with.
Who is your greatest enemy and why? Personal enemy would have to be Joey Castellano, my ex. Work enemy would have to be whoever is trying to take over or destroy the world at the moment.
Do you think you can ever reconcile with this enemy? I don’t really see it happening. Joey got my brother killed, and it’s bad business to let people take over or destroy the world, so unless they suddenly just give up and reform, I don’t see that happening there either. By the way, this has never happened.
Do you have a love interest? Working on it.
What is your weapon of choice? Ruger SR 9
What makes you happy?
Do you have a code of honor? Yes.
What makes you angry? Abuse of any kind
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I would probably be able to shape shift like the rest of my family. It gets old being the odd woman out.
What do you think is your greatest strength? Persistence
What do you think is your greatest weakness? Jason says it’s my tendency to jump in to situations before we have all the information, and I can see where that causes a few problems, but most of the time we don’t have time to hesitate if we’re going to catch the bad guys than to drag our feet.
What do you think is your enemy's greatest strength? Varies
What do you think is your enemy's greatest weakness? Varies depending on the enemy.
Name one person you admire. Giles Walker my mentor at DUE
Name one person you trust. My partner Jason is one of the few people I know who always has my back.
