If you like this series, then you'll love this one. Same scenario, same people (Peabody, Emerson, Ramses, Nefret and Cyrus) but different mystery and different tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Of course, you know someone is going to be in mortal danger - no difference here. As predictable as it is, it's enjoyable anyway. I love the edition of Ramses and Nefret's four year old twins. They're a hoot!

Amelia Peabody, the matriarch of a world-famous family of adventurers and archaeolgists, helps solve a mystery involving a beautiful, but supposedly cursed, golden statue. Based in the VAlley of the Kings where the famous Pyramids are located, this story takes place at the time Carter is also researching the area and will later discover King Tut's tomb.
Excellent! Amilia Peabody is at her finest on this one.
