  Casey and Kiley think they’re heading out for an ordinary walk in the woods - until Tuttle, their bright blue metallic bird friend, calls them into another mission. One step through his glowing portal sends them tumbling into the scorching sands of ancient Egypt, where a young boy named Akhom is hiding from the very people who should be protecting him. Declared dead and left to perish in the desert, Akhom reveals that he is the rightful Pharaoh, overthrown by the High Priest who has seized the throne. Determined to help their new friend, the siblings battle sandstorms, outsmart hungry crocodiles, and sneak beneath a palace guarded by giant tiger fish. Danger shadows their every move, yet the journey pulls them deeper into a world filled with temples, secret tunnels, and a kingdom struggling for its future. 
  But the true mystery begins when Casey and Kiley discover a chamber forbidden to all Egyptians, holding a secret that rewrites everything known about the ancient world. Inside waits an alien who has shaped Egypt’s most iconic wonders for more than a thousand years - and holds the key to uncovering what happened to Akhom’s missing parents. With time running out and the fate of an entire kingdom in their hands, Casey, Kiley, and Tuttle must work together to expose the truth, confront a power-hungry usurper, and restore the Pharaoh to his throne. Sweeping, vivid, and full of heart-pounding twists, this adventure blends history, mystery, and cosmic wonder into a journey young listeners won’t forget.
