Riassunto

At last the Great War is over. Amelia, her distinguished Egyptologist husband, Emerson, and their extended family are preparing for another season of excavation in Egypt. To everyone's great joy their son, Ramses, and his wife, Nefret, have become parents. Amelia, enjoying her role of fond (yet firm) grandmother, hopes that for once, this will be a quiet year with Ramses no longer undertaking perilous missions for British intelligence and no old enemies on their trail.

A folorn hope! Past dangers cast shadows across the seemingly peaceful present, and a new adversary - unlike any Amelia has ever encountered - will chart a course that puts her beloved family directly in the path of destruction.
