Book
Tomb of the Golden Bird
First published 2006
In 1922, Emerson remains convinced that Tutankhamun’s tomb lies in the Valley of the Kings, but the excavation rights belong to Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon. Unable to displace his rivals, the Emerson family works nearby and watches as Carter closes in on the discovery that will become the defining archaeological event of the decade.
A separate criminal plot begins when Emerson and Ramses are abducted and questioned about the identity and location of an unknown man. Their search for the meaning of “Where is he?” intersects with the rivalries, secrecy and political pressure surrounding the royal tomb, placing the fictional Emersons alongside Carter and Carnarvon as the burial chamber is opened.
