When an Arab girl finds herself in love with the boy friend of an American Jewess, the result is a pair of psychotic and dangerous women. Against the backdrop of the assassination of the Egyptian leader, Anwar el Sadat in 1981, the women strive for revenge over more than each other. One joins the Israeli Army but her educational and physical skills take her to the Mossad, where she becomes a skilled agent. Even then, though, her paranoia leads to an audacious Israeli theft of the mask and gold coffin of the boy king, Tutankhamun, together with other priceless relics from the Cairo Museum. The police chase involves governments as the treasure hunt crosses Africa, America, Eastern and Western Europe, the Middle East and England. Police in three Continents have to battle against the ingenuity of professional spies and assassins as well as the activities of the Arabic girl's pursuit of her hated rival. And while all that is happening another love story begins amid the murderous efforts of unscrupulous villains on all sides - all complicated by two women whose pathological hatred dominates their every act - not mention a brilliant instinctive Egyptian detective who believes in creative thinking - to the chagrin of the stiff upper lip senior desk trained copper in London.

Autorenporträt
George Lambelle is an experienced broadcaster and journalist who has interviewed many famous people, including Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair, the Rolling Stones, and various stars from film, television, radio, and theater. He has also traveled to many countries in Europe. Throughout his fifty-year career as a journalist and BBC broadcaster in North-East England, George Lambelle has won many awards for the BBC in various roles such as producer, director, reporter, outside broadcast commentator, news editor, and scriptwriter for news, documentaries, and drama. He has also turned to writing fiction and producing DVDs in retirement. His novels often incorporate elements of the north-east of England, which he holds dear, with its industrial heritage and beautiful countryside. The Lambelle family has some historical connections. George Lambelle has a distant relative named Marie Therese Louise of Savory, Princess De Lambelle. The princess served as a lady-in-waiting to Marie Antoinette. During the French Revolution, some members of the Lambelle family fled and settled in England. Unfortunately, the princess was beheaded by a mob, and her head was displayed on a pike as a message to her friend, the queen.
