Summary

She glanced down at the drawer in which she kept all her floppy disks. That and all the other drawers had been pulled out and thrown on the floor. They were empty, of course; along with the disks, all her notebooks and photographs were missing. Her last connections with the seventh scroll were lost. After three years of work, gone was the proof it had ever existed.

A hunt for treasure. A battle to stay alive.

When Royan Al Simma is the victim of a vicious attack that leaves her husband dead, her only thought is that she must continue their joint work: to use the secrets of the seventh scroll to find the hidden tomb of Pharaoh Mamose and its untold trove of lost Egyptian riches. To do so, she must bury her grief and partner with the eccentric aristocrat Nicholas Quenton-Harper, a man who shares her passion for the ancient world.

But the men who killed her husband are not yet finished. As Royan and Nicholas draw closer to the Pharaoh's tomb, enemies are gathering - people who will stop at nothing to ensure the scroll's promised treasures are kept from Roman's hands....

I feel it would be easier to read if it had chapter breaks instead of it being read in one big block. Otherwise enjoyed the contents and the way the modern elements were worked in to the previous book.

Just one chapter

Excellent narrator. With all the different characters coming to life with his masterful accents, it was quite easy to believe different actors were speaking. Truly wonderful story telling.

Great read

Gripping story line, spoiled (only slightly) by sycophantic references to the author, which I found a bit tacky!

Apart from that, a great tale!

Great Story

Excellent book and storytelling

Great story! And can Wilbur Smith ever resist having rebels and poachers in his writing

Good old Wilbur Smith
