A biblical legend. A hidden danger. A rogue archaeologist. A Nazi Plot. Marah Chase has everything she wants. Her academic career is back on track, she's moved into a Manhattan apartment, and a dream job is waiting at the American Museum of Natural History. So why can't she seem to stop slipping into her old ways, traveling the world in search of lost relics and buried treasure? Back out in the field, Chase finds the lost Ark of the Covenant, a discovery that could trigger a holy war. The Ark also brings Chase into conflict with another legendary relic runner, August Nash, and the clash between them is one the entire underground smuggling community has been waiting for - and it's not one that will end anytime soon. Upon returning home, Chase is hired by US soda billionaire Lauren Stanford to find the Fountain of Youth. At first, Chase dismisses this idea. But then Stanford tells her that an old friend found some information on the Fountain's location and is now missing. Chase agrees to take the job - but only to find her friend - and enlists allies along the way on a trail from New York to London and then on to Glasgow. Behind the myth, they find, lies a much older secret, one that could verify or refute the bible, and rewrite everything we know. With the Garden of Eden in her sights, Chase must get there ahead of Nash and his shadowy employer. Whoever wins will have control over the future of humanity. Marah Chase and the Fountain of Youth is a tense, exciting, and epic adventure novel, spanning three continents and broadening the world of the Marah Chase series, placing Chase in a unique position to confront questions of identity, faith, imperialism, and appropriation."Marah Chase is cunning, empowered, and queer, a Lara Croft for the 21st century."-John Copenhaver"Ever wonder what Raiders of the Lost Ark would be like if it was set in the present day and Marian Ravenwood got to do all the cool stuff instead of Indiana Jones?"- Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff"Stringer effortlessly weaves a complex web of espionage and betrayal around a rip-snorting, larger-than-life adventure in the spirit of Indiana Jones."- Antony Johnston, creator of 'Atomic Blonde' and 'The Exphoria Code'"Stringer, author of the Sam Ireland and Eoin Miller mysteries, has a winner here with Marah Chase―pulse-pounding adventure, in the best Indiana Jones tradition, with a charismatic gay woman fuelling the action."- Booklist (starred)"If you merged Ocean's Eleven with Indiana Jones, you'd get Marah Chase―a high-octane, pulse-pounding race to save the world from an ancient weapon."- Julie McElwainNote: This book was originally published as Marah Chase and the Fountain of Youth by Pegasus Books in 2020.

Now, two decades later, Chloe is a bounty hunter in Arizona, and a local crime boss hires her track down a criminal who has stolen a bag of cash. The fugitive's name? Emily Scott.

When presented with a chance to run away with a bag full of cash, she didn't hesitate. But now pout on the road she's stuck between two worlds. After spending twenty years getting good at one thing, and building her identity around it, can she abandon all that work and become someone new? And what happens when she finds out Chloe Medina is on her tail, the hot girl who broke her nose at high school after one kiss? Chloe isn't the only person chasing Scott down. Deputy U.S. Marshal Treat Tyler is on the case. Scott had been in Tyler's custody when she escaped, and his reputation is on the line. What self-respecting lawman lets a comedian get away? Tyler has another personal stake in the story. He used to work with Medina, back when she was a Marshal. They were rivals. They had identical test scores and identical success rates. Tyler enjoys wearing the badge just as much as Medina did. He's obsessed with being the cowboy, and despite the years between, can't stop wondering if Medina may have been just a bit better at it. Whenever their paths cross, he finds a way to bring conversation round to the idea of a contest-to settle the issue once and for all. Medina always declines. She has nothing to prove. But Tyler does, and finding out that Medina is tracking the same fugitive? Game on. Again. And, of course, Tyler is hiding his own secrets about Big Wheel.
