Egypt, thou knew'st too well my heart was to thy rudder tied... In a shadowy, atmospheric gallery of a Victorian building, a beautiful Egyptian sarcophagus is the main attraction of a new exhibition. But the mummified body inside is not that of an ancient pharaoh; it belongs to the chair of the museum's trustees, who until recently was alive and well. Charismatic, philanthropic and enthusiastic about all things Egyptian, Sheridan Tasker didn't appear to have an enemy in the world. However, someone clearly wanted him dead. His murder coincides with the latest in a series of artefacts going missing from the museum, but the placing of his body inside a sarcophagus seems far more personal than the spontaneous act of a desperate thief. It is part-time super-sleuth and full-time coffee aficionado Sophie Lockwood who finds the body, and despite stern warnings from the local police, she immediately sets to work on unravelling the mystery. But every lead takes her back to the same question: why would anyone want to kill such a highly regarded man? Then Sophie's world is rocked when she finds another body at the museum. Only this time, it's someone she loves dearly... Share in laughs and laments, puzzles and pastries, and, of course, plenty of coffee with Sophie and her friends in this, the tenth book in the Charleton House series of cosy mysteries. But beware the voodoo dolls and curses!
