Sinopse

A woman thinks she’s found her long-missing sister, but the discovery only leads to more questions in this wrenching thriller by the author of The Deception. Elise McDonald is sure she has just spotted her sister, Grace, in a department store in Leeds. The last time she saw her was fourteen years ago, at Grace’s third birthday party, when the children scattered during a game of hide and seek—but Grace never returned from her hiding place. When the girl approaches, she introduces herself as Ruth and chats about her father, a doctor, and the village she grew up in. But Elise believes that Ruth is really Grace—even if she doesn’t know it. Elise’s family dismisses her theory, claiming that pregnancy is making her hormonal and irrational. But her aunt, at least, is willing to help her investigate—and eventually Jack Priestly, the original detective on the case, is drawn in as well. Is there any chance they can solve a cold case the police had long given up on—or is Elise deluding herself? And if she’s right, what really happened on that fateful day?

    🏺 The new "Curse of the Pharaohs" exhibit at the local museum is the talk of the town—until the lead curator is found dead in the sarcophagus of the main attraction, a recently unearthed mummy. The police are quick to call it a tragic accident, but museum archivist and part-time history professor Dr. Eliza Sands knows better. The scene is a perfect replica of an ancient Egyptian ritual murder, and the clues point to someone with intimate knowledge of both the museum and Egyptology. To uncover the truth, Eliza must decipher hieroglyphic hints and follow a trail of ancient artifacts and modern motives. With help from her clever cat, Anubis, and a handsome archaeologist who knows more about the mummy than he's letting on, Eliza uncovers a web of stolen artifacts, academic rivalry, and a family secret someone is willing to kill to protect. Can she solve this ancient puzzle before the killer decides to add another body to the exhibit?

With the clock ticking, the twins find themselves in the grip of an unseen and deadly energy that has seeped into their midst—and in the sights of a ruthless killer.
