In this fifth entry in the series Lara McClintoch leads an antiques and archaeology tour to Tunisia. She must deal with a mixed bag of tourists: a spoiled teenager, a famous model, a snoop, a blackmailing journalist and the list goes on. The story of a Carthaginian merchant ship that sank over two thousand years ago has stirred everyone's imagination and some with murderous intent. Sure enough death hits the group and a mystery must be solved. There is a lot of interesting information about Carthage and the Punic wars woven into the story as Lara tries to cope with a very diverse group of people.
