Synopsis
It's Agnes Wilkins's debut season, and she's already attracted the attention of one of nineteenth-century England's most eligible and desirable men. Lord Showalter is handsome, wealthy, and has a quirky interest in helping England amass the world's finest collection of Egyptian artifacts. Agnes thinks it could be a good match, but suspects Showalter may be too good to be true. And indeed, he is hiding something--the fact that he's a spy working for Napoleon. His orders are smuggled into London in Egyptian artifacts, and when Agnes unwittingly pockets one during a mummy unwrapping party at Showalter's home, her action jump-starts a chain of events that bring out dangerous characters, dangerous circumstances, and the biggest danger of all--true love. Jennifer Bradbury's knack for suspense and adventure make this an amazingly rich, wildly compelling novel about the secrets inside and outside of a mummy's tomb.e mummy Agnes unwraps isn't just a mummy. It's a host for a secret that could unravel a new destiny--unleashing mystery, an international intrigue, and possibly a curse in the bargain. Get wrapped up in the adventure . . . but keep your wits about you, dear Agnes.
