When Talibah and her younger brother, Adom, accompany their father, an academic, to his homeland of modern Egypt, they become involved in a mystery surrounding an ancient, lost pharaoh—a rare queen named Hatshepsut. Someone

Working against Talibah is the snakelike Rashid, a colleague of her father’s, who as a different agenda. Will he manage to stop Talibah and her brother from discovering the truth about what happened to Hatshepsut and Senenmut? Or will
