A new yr, 1917, is dawning, and the Great War that ravages the world shows no sign of abating. Responding to the siren call of Egypt once again, Amelia Peabody and her family reach their home in Luxor to observe a fresh royal tomb ransacked by thieves. Soon a far more disturbing outrage concerns the intrepid clan of archaeologists: the newly and savagely slain corpse of the thief defiling the historical burial site. Yet this is nothing weighed against the lethal fate that threatens Ramses. Besieged by the British and defended by formidable Turkish and German forces, the fortified seaport of Gaza guards the gateway to the Holy Land. Responding to a call he cannot refuse from English military brains, Ramses must voyage to this ancient, fabled city to undertake a objective as personal as it is perilous. Fatality will surely be his great deal if he is caught or subjected. Meanwhile, Ramses' partner, Nefret, guards a magic formula of her own.... Once more the incomparable and best-selling author carries us to a amazing realm of historical miracles and crumbling splendor - from the busy bustle of the Cairo markets to remote, sand-swept sides of the Egyptian desert where in fact the gods of antiquity sleep. Returning visitors to the world of Amelia Peabody will be enthralled by the latest mesmerizing experience from the award-winning grandmaster, and beginners will succumb to her wiles as they are caught up in the tantalizing spell of the exceptional Elizabeth Peters and The Golden One.
