A-ha! King Tut's tomb is discovered...and not by the Emersons, of course. But they are, as they are wont to be, very involved in the situation surrounding the discovery. Sethos has also turned up, and while the tomb's contents may have brought out his acquisitiveness, he may also be there for another, political, reason. The normal kidnapping and mayhem occur around the Emersons, and Radcliffe (it's weird to call him that) has annoyed so many Important People that he is relegated to a small, insignificant site in the West Valley. There is very very little actual archaeology here, mostly a lot of political manuevering and verbal dueling.
Not one of Peters' best works. It seems to be more of a way station to get to the next Real Big Book.
But I still like Amelia.
