A thrilling adventure of curses, myths and legends set in ancient Egypt, perfect for fans of Emma Carroll and Horrible Histories.

It’s 1249 BCE in ancient Egypt and eleven-year-old Henut is sceptical of just about everything, even the gods. But a mysterious break-in, an unsettling dream and a strangely familiar shadowy figure lead her into a dangerous quest she could never have imagined. Will she really venture into a tomb in the Valley of Kings? She might not have a choice…Packed with real historical details of the rule of Pharaoh Rameses II, mummification, hieroglyphs, historical figures and the pyramids of Giza, this page-turning thriller about the myths and magic of ancient Egypt will have readers gripped.
