Curse of the Pharaoh Queen
by Linda Piccolo

The year is 1932. Newlyweds Max and Agatha Christie Mallowan travel to Egypt to excavate the tomb of the pharaoh queen Hatshepsut.

Along for the ride are a Texas oilman, his wife Cookie, a young graduate assistant, and a maid.

Things are proceeding well until an Egyptian archeologist threatens a mummy's curse on the entire party.

Forged artifacts, hawk attacks, and a murder force the world's greatest crime writer to solve a very real mystery before anyone else falls victim to the killer.
