A priceless relic has been delivered to the Emersons. But more than history surrounds this golden likeness of a forgotten king, for it is said early death will befall anyone who possesses it.
The woman warns that the cursed statue has already killed her husband. Now Amelia Peabody and her loved ones are plunged into a storm of secrets, treachery, and murder by the widow's strange story and stranger request. Each step toward the truth reveals a new peril, suggesting this curse is no mere superstition. And the next victim of the small golden king could be any member of the close-knit clan--perhaps even Amelia herself.
This is another page turner. You can't wait to find out what is going to happen to the family.
