| Abstract | Archaeologist Elizabeth Butler, alienated from the present because of a traumatic personal history, finds happiness excavating the ruins of a Mayan city. Soon she is joined by her grown daughter, Diane, facing her own problems. Then the specter of a millennium-dead Mayan priestess appears and demands Elizabeth restore the past with a blood sacrifice: the death of Diane. |
