They called her the Scourge of Cheviot Hills. Emily Best took it as a compliment.
Fresh out of prison for looting a Roman hoard, Emily has no intention of going straight. She has a metal detector, a reliable fence in Newcastle, and a complete disregard for England's Treasure Act.
She also has a daughter who won't return her calls, parents who haven't spoken to her since the trial, and an ex who testified against her for a lighter sentence.
And she keeps dying.
Every death resets the clock. Every reset gives her another chance to do things differently. But Emily Best doesn't do differently. She does the same thing, harder, until the universe runs out of patience.
The Ancient Lives of Emily Best is the third book in The Cheviot Hills Time Travel Series, a Middle Falls Universe novel. It can be read as a standalone or as part of the series.
