A Pharaoh's curse reaches up from the grave.
Dane and Bones have traveled to Luxor, Egypt, and the historic Valley of the Kings to explore a sunken subterranean passage that just might lead to the undiscovered tomb of a forgotten Pharaoh. But someone else has beaten them to it. A ruthless black-market art dealer wants the Pharaoh's riches for himself, and to hide his crimes, is prepared to unleash a deadly, ancient curse on an unsuspecting world.

Praise for David Wood and Sean Ellis!
"Dane and Bones.... Together they're unstoppable. Rip roaring action from start to finish. Wit and humor throughout. Just one question - how soon until the next one? Because I can't wait." -Graham Brown, author of Shadows of the Midnight Sun
"What an adventure! A great read that provides lots of action, and thoughtful insight as well, into strange realms that are sometimes best left unexplored." -Paul Kemprecos, author of Cool Blue Tomb and the NUMA Files
"Ellis and Wood are a partnership forged in the fires of Hell. Books don't burn hotter than this!" -Steven Savile, author of the Ogmios thrillers
David Wood
Based in West Lancashire, David is a keen walker, photographer and rock climber. As a frequent traveller he has followed his pursuits in over 20 countries across five continents. David worked initially in the police service, following which he taught in secondary and adult education. He subsequently worked as a psychologist with children and adults in the public sector. After developing an interest in the mountains as a young teenager through the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme, David completed the Pennine Way at the age of 17. He improved his rock climbing in his thirties largely through the influence of the Fylde Mountaineering Club. During frequent climbing visits to Morocco with the Club he became increasingly aware of the potential for walking and scrambling and in March 2015 he returned with his partner Halina to explore and document the routes in this guidebook.
