Romantic Suspense.
An early Roberts, mostly romance, but enjoyable.
For centuries the tombs of the Pharaohs had been haunted with this curse. When two eminent archaeologists died mysteriously, Judith Osmond was certain that they had died because of the curse. But this had nothing to do with her. Or so she thought. Then overnight, everything in her life changed. There was the unexpected inheritance. And the man of her dreams, Tybalt, a young archaeologist, asked her to marry him. But Tybalt planned to explore the tombs of the Pharaohs, during their honeymoon. And so the curse of the kings now came to haunt Judith. Blending the atmosphere of Victorian-Age England with the mystery of the Age-of-the-Pharaohs Egypt, THE CURSE OF THE KINGS, is Victoria Holt's most exotic novel of romantic suspense.
This is a 1973 book done authored by one of the world's most popular authors. She blends romance and suspense with the adventure of a search for ancient treasures in the land of the Pharaohs.
