Description
A woman returns to Egypt to clear her archaeologist father's name in this mystery by the New York Times-bestselling author of the Amelia Peabody series. Althea Tomlinson's ostensible reason for returning to Egypt is to chaperone a spoiled teenager through this fabulous desert land. The truth is more complex-and dangerous. Ten years ago, something that happened here brought about her archaeologist father's ruin and subsequent death. . . . and Althea intends to clear his disgraced name and finally lay a dark past to rest. But there are some mysteries best left buried in the shifting sands, and a devoted daughter's search for answers is stirring up forgotten memories almost too painful to endure, which propel her onward among ancient tombs, legendary treasures, miraculous discoveries . . . and ever closer to her own threatened doom. Praise for the novels of Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Elizabeth Peters "Deeply satisfying." -Entertainment Weekly "Elizabeth Peters is truly great." -San Francisco Chronicle "This author never fails to entertain." -Cleveland Plain Dealer
