Synopsis
Amid the awesome temples in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, a fabulous treasure is waiting to be discovered. A treasure worth dying - or killing - for.
Beautiful Egyptologist Erica Baron is mesmerised by a centuries-old statue in a Cairo antique shop and believes she has found the key to a dazzling hoard of untapped treasure. But there are others, more ruthless and corrupt than herself, who are determined to get there first, whatever the cost...
Lost in a deadly web of intrigue and murder, she desperately races to unlock the secret of the unknown pharaoh's tomb and plumb the curse that has kept it intact since time began...
Sphinx stages a dramatic interplay between an ancient world of vast wealth and the modern world that robs and reveres it.
