Lord Charles Marques, a collector of artifacts and antiquities, has sponsored the excavation of an Egyptian tomb in the Valley of the Monkeys in a joint venture between the British Museum and the Museum of Cairo. Two workers have disappeared from the site and unusual activities are occurring. Sir Thomas Treadwell of MIA and his wife, Lady Grace, have been requested by Lloyd's of London to investigate the disappearances. Join them on their journey and experience the luxury of travel, the intrigue of criminal investigations mingled with frightening experiences, suspense, humor, romance, mystery, and the power of women's intuition.
