"Originally published in trade paperback by Hachette Book Group. First mass market edition: February 1988. Reissued: October 1992, April 2002. First oversize mass market edition: May 2013." --T.p. verso. Sir Henry is striving to ensure no tomb has been overlooked by the previous expedition. Scarcely have the men started working when their spades uncover a series of steps cut into the rock. Then Sir Henry is found stiff and stark in his bed. On his high brow, inscribed in what appears to be dried blood, is a crudely drawn uraeus serpent, the symbol of the divine pharaoh. |
