Nearly four thousand years old, a fading legacy from beyond the grave contains the clues to a fabulous treasure from an almost forgotten time. Archaeologists Duraid Al Simmu and his wife, Royan, are the first to discover the tomb of Queen Lostris, and with it, the scrolls in which the wily scribe Taita recorded the burial of Pharaoh Mamose with all his vast treasure. However, their discovery triggers a savage battle for the Pharaoh's secrets. When Duraid is brutally murdered and their research notes are stolen, Royan is forced to seek refuge in England. There, she partners with the eminent and aristocratic archaeologist Sir Nicholas Quenton-Harper to pick up the pieces of her shattered life. Together, they find the courage to return to Ethiopia to follow Taita's ancient clues, embarking on a perilous adventure to find the hidden tomb while being hunted by a ruthless collector who will stop at nothing to claim the prize as his own.
