500    "An Amelia Peabody mystery"--Cover. 
500    Originally published in trade paperback by Mysterious 
       Press. 
520    On the death of her father, 32-year old Victorian heiress 
       Amelia Peabody travels Egypt to indulge her interest in 
       Egyptology. She travels with Evelyn Barton-Forbes and her 
       trusty parasol which comes in handy on more than one 
       occasion. In Cairo the pair meet archaeologists Radcliffe 
       and Walter Emerson and sparks fly between Radcliffe and 
       Amelia. The groups meet again at Emerson's excavation 
       where Amelia saves Radcliffe's life and takes charge of 
       his precious archaeological site. The four then band 
       together to discover why the locals will no longer report 
       to work and to try to find a missing mummy who walks the 
       night. An historical mystery with amusing repartee between
       a strong-willed Amelia and an equally pigheaded Radcliffe 
       in an exotic setting and time.
