About this book

A rare Peruvian mummy sits at the center of this Edwardian mystery, where romance and murder tangle around a scholar's obsession. Archie Hope wants to marry Lucy Kendal, but her stepfather, the irascible archaeologist Professor Braddock, will only consent if Archie helps him acquire a green mummy shipped from South America. When the man carrying the relic is found strangled and the mummy vanishes, suspicion spreads through a cast of collectors, servants, and rivals. Hume keeps the plot busy with false trails, hidden motives, and a slowly closing net. Written by the author of one of the best-selling detective novels of the Victorian age, it offers brisk, old-fashioned puzzle-solving.
