The Curse of the Pharaoh

Brave Lady Amelia Peabody and her brilliant husband, Professor Emerson, live in Kent and raise their son Ramses, but secretly miss adventure very much. When Sir Henry Baskerville, who recently discovered an untouched royal tomb, dies under strange circumstances, and his widow begs the famous archaeologists to continue the excavation, they promptly head to Luxor.

Only the locals whisper about the curse of the pharaoh, and someone is methodically eliminating everyone who comes close to unraveling the mystery of the tomb. 

In the very heart of Egypt, amidst sweltering sands and mummies, the Emersons challenge the killer. But will they manage to uncover the truth before the curse — whether real or fabricated — claims another victim?
