When gold of the pharaohs is threatened, undercover artifact theft investigator Stefanie Adams and her Artifact Retrieval Team (ART) lead and partner Thomas Burkhardt attend the opening gala of the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo, hoping to head off trouble. But trouble comes from an unexpected quarter, and a thief who didn’t stop at murder has escaped with a golden relic of ancient Egyptian royalty.
Stefanie and Thomas narrow the suspects down to a few: the A-lister who imagines herself as an ancient Egyptian queen. A photographer who craves validation for an ancestor’s slight. And the men who love them. Members of the Kemet Forever Society, who all admit to an obsession with ancient Egypt, and aren’t above using their influence to get what they want.
Trailing their suspects up the Nile through temples and tombs, Stefanie and Thomas race against time to recover the stolen gold before it is secreted out of Egypt and another victim falls in the thief’s deadly game.
