Tomb of the Golden Bird (Amelia Peabody) - Hardcover
It is 1922 -- convinced the tomb of the little-known King Tutankhamun lies somewhere in the Valley of the Kings, Emerson tries to persuade his rivals Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter to hand over their digging rights there to him -- to no avail.
Back in Luxor, however, an incident at the hotel turns their gifts for digging in another direction, when Emerson and Ramses are lured into a trap by a gang of villains who demand an answer to the obscure question, 'Where is he' Their curiosity piqued, the duo determine to uncover the identity of the hunted man -- whatever the cost.
