Cairo by Nightfall (Fresco Nights saga #5)

How did they die and where were they buried? Cleopatra and Mark Antony disappeared, hunted by Emperor Octavian’s Roman armies. No archaeologist has ever located the bodies.

Until now . . .

“Do not scream when you see the mummy.” With these words Museum illustrator Lucy Racine, member of the Save Our Ruins Effort (ISORE), is launched on a rescue mission that ends in the treasure hunt of a lifetime. In the addictive fifth installment of the FRESCO NIGHTS Saga Lucy is reunited with a man from her past who believes he has found the tomb of Cleopatra.

Her current flame, sexy bodyguard Norman Depardieu, questions Lucy’s feelings for the disgraced archaeologist, a former heartthrob whose memory embarrasses her. Lucy denies the accusations and heads to Cairo.

Egypt is Syria’s newest ally in the Middle East. But relations could erupt in war when a priceless relic known as the Screaming Mummy is stolen. Egypt accuses Syria of collusion with terrorists. But the mummy is not what it seems. Only Lucy’s ex knows why.

For Lucy Racine the repercussions are personal. Her actions could restore the reputation of one individual or determine the fate of a nation.

Could her choice also destroy the love of her life?
