Their love is ancient history if they can’t catch the thief
out to kill them. Theodora Speer loves her job at the Columbian Exposition
Museum designing murals, but a sense of movement—in her art
and in her life—eludes her. She meets the museum’s enigmatic
donor Seth Adler while working on a new exhibit: a strange
cache of shabtis, or clay funerary figurines, accompanying a
prize mummy, and something sparks. Seth Adler’s interest in the Egyptian artifacts and in Theo
goes deeper than patronage, but he can’t tell her that. A
series of robberies has everyone on edge and when the
Columbian is hit, Theo and Seth are implicated. Someone
thinks there was more to the ancient Egyptian funeral rites
than meets the eye and wants the mummy and his grave goods. Seth and Theo are forced on the run, and it may be too much
movement for strict realist Theo to keep up with. But the
man—and the mummy—are more than she realized. And if she
can’t reconcile the past and the present, she and Seth may
have no future. Warning: A hero with an affinity for grave dust and an
artist who’d like to do more than nail his unique skin tone
to the wall. Contains an off-label use for paint thinner you
WON’T want to try at home. Try to keep up!
