Three thousand years ago, Siptah, high priest of the Temple of Karnak, witnesses a flying disc crash into a mountainside. Unearthing the strange craft he finds an alien woman in a life-support pod
A woman destined to rule.
It isn’t long before the pharaoh, Horemosis, is murdered under suspicious circumstances.
Jumping forward to twentieth-century England where George Drake, a successful insurance broker, recovers an ancient papyrus with clues to the location of Horemosis’s long-forgotten tomb. In London Drake meets with the curator of the Egyptian wing of the British Museum who turns out to be a duplicitous smuggler.
He isn’t the only one interested in finding what’s inside.
Drake’s life is soon at stake as he’s chased by ruthless killers looking to retrieve the document. Drake partners up with Sherifa, an expert in hieroglyphics, and together they flee to Egypt. Surveilled by Egyptian thugs, the duo explore Sharm El Sheikh, Luxor, and Kom Ombo, desperately trying to untangle the riddle to the tomb and its whereabouts before the British assassins catch up with them. Will the duo crack Siptah’s code in time to find the tomb and preserve its contents?
Or will they be sealed inside along with its secrets?
