Summary
For thousands of years, Egypt was a rich, ingenious civilisation. Then it became a fertile hunting ground for archaeologists and explorers. Now the streets of Cairo teem with violence as a political awakening shakes the region. Archaeologist Jack Howard has connected a mystery hidden inside a great pyramid to a fossilised discovery in the Red Sea and a 150-year-old handwritten report of a man who claims to have escaped a labyrinth beneath Cairo. For that his team is stalked by a brutal extremist organisation that will destroy any treasure they find. As people fight and die for their rights above-ground, Jack fights for a discovery that will shed an astounding new light on the greatest story ever told: Moses's exodus from Egypt and the true beginnings of a new chapter in human history
