Produktbeschreibung
Amelia Peabody and family are on a new expedition to the Valley of the Kings at the beginning of the 1907 archaeological season. Soon, Amelia will need all her remarkable skills of detection and deduction to untangle a web woven of criminals and cults, stolen treasures and fallen women--all the while under the unblinking eye of a ruthless, remorseless killer.
After eluding a kidnapper in London, an unperturbed Amelia Peabody accompanies her unconventional family to Cairo once more?only to be ensnared almost immediately in a web of stolen treasures and bloodthirsty cults. Villainy is running rampant in Egypt this 1907 archaeological season, but the members of the intrepid Peabody-Emerson clan have already proven themselves to be formidable adversaries. However, when a mint-condition papyrus of the Book of the Dead falls into their hands, and the corpse of an unscrupulous dealer in stolen antiquities is found floating in the Nile, the Emersons' prospects for surviving this excavation season unscathed appear increasingly dim.
