In autumn 1921, with the world at peace, the Emersons are enjoying a busy period of excavation in Egypt. But their digging turns to detecting when they hear a tale of a man's mysterious death. The widow is convinced her husband was the victim of a curse, and implores the Emersons to return the small 'deadly' statue that killed him to the tomb.
Autumn 1921. The Peabody-Emerson clan are enjoying a fruitful period of excavation in Egypt. But when they hear the alarming tale of a man's mysterious death their digging turns to detecting. His widow is convinced her husband was the victim of a curse and implores the Emersons to find and return the small 'deadly' statue that killed him to the tomb from which it was stolen -- before it claims another life. From bitter experience the Emersons know it would be a serious mistake to start chasing tomb robbers. But Amelia and family soon start to find the curse may be more real than ever imagined...
