Product Description
Amelia Peabody, 32-year-old Victorian gentlewoman, inherited two things from her father: a considerble fortune and an unbendable will. The first was indispensible in allowing her to indulge in her life's passion: Egyptology. Without the second, the mummy's curse would have made corpses of them all. Promptly upon her father's death, Amelia takes ship for Cairo but her companion, Miss Pritchertt, succumbs to typhoid in Rome - weakminded female that she is. That's just when an unexpected distraction drops, more or less, at Amelia's feet. What happens next makes for a delicious mystery and pyramids of fun. "Amelia is too funny to resist" St. Louis Post-Dispatch
