Should you find yourself in need of a discreet investigation into
any sort of mystery, call on Jesperson and Lane . . . 'Arthur Conan
Doyle would have approved,' says George R.R. Martin Miss Lane is
puzzled by Jasper Jesperson's interest in what seems a very minor
theft -possibly even a prank - from the storerooms at the British
Museum. But London in the 1890s is rife with secret organisations,
cults and individuals eager to acquire some of the legendary magic
of ancient Egypt. The deeper the two detectives dig, the more
hidden crimes they uncover, and the higher the death toll mounts.
And at the centre of it all is the 'Mystery Mummy' recently
acquired by the museum. 'Tuttle does a lovely job of putting us
back in the foggy streets of Victorian London' George R.R. Martin,
author of The Game of Thrones Are the deaths and madness truly
caused by a mummy's curse? Or is there a scheming, living villain
to be apprehended? 'A most engaging detective duo' Mark Douglas
Home, author of The Sea Detective and The Woman Who Walked Into The
Sea Jesperson and Lane, with their experience of past
investigations involving psychic phenomena and supernatural events
as well as ordinary human criminality, are surely best placed to
find the truth. Jesperson and Lane, at your service.
