In Pandianâs lively and humorous third Jaya Jones Treasure Hunt Mystery (after 2014âs Private Vishnu), a letter and plane ticket purportedly from former art thief Lane Peters sends San Francisco history professor Jaya to Paris. There, one of Laneâs former associates forces him into a plot to rob the Louvre; Jaya must reluctantly insist on participating. When Jaya realizes the significance of the artifact to be stolenâa page from an illuminated manuscriptâshe and Lane determine to thwart the others involved in the theft. A coded message from Sanjay, Jayaâs magician friend back in San Francisco, helps her locate Sébastien: a remarkably energetic 90-year-old with a brilliant mind, a houseful of amazing automatons, and a set of invaluable skills to help them in their quest. Charming characters, a hint of romantic conflict, and just the right amount of danger will garner more fans for this cozy series. Agent: Marsal Lyon Literary Agency.
