Two years ago the tomb of Tutankhamun was uncovered and caused a worldwide sensation. Now an even more remarkable discovery has been made with the opening of the tomb of King Men-her-Ra by Sir John Willard and Felix Bleibner.
But within days, tragedy has struck. Sir John dies suddenly heart failure and two weeks later, Bleibner too is dead, struck down by blood poisoning. When the latters nephew, Rupert Bleibner, commits suicide in New York, the rumours of a curse reach the point of hysteria. Hercule Poirot summons the surviving members of the expedition to Cairo, where he will uncover the truth. Are these three deaths connected? Are there supernatural forces at work? Or is one of his dinner guests a murderer?
The suspects are:
SIR GUY WILLARD - the son and heir of Sir John Willard, he has just come down from Oxford and taken over his fathers work.
LADY DIANA WILLARD - the widow of Sir John Willard, fearful that her only son will be the next victim of the curse.
HASSAN - the Egyptian servant of the Willard family, steeped in the superstitions and customs of the ancient world.
DR GLADYS FOSSWELL - a British archaeologist from the British Museum, she has long been a colleague and a rival of Sir John Willard.
PROFESSOR KURT SCHNEIDER - a German archaeologist from the Altes Museum, Berlin, he has only recently joined the expedition.
DR ROBERT AMES - an American doctor with the expedition, a long-standing friend of the Bleibner family.
FEMI ATI - an Egyptian nurse, working with Dr Ames.
JUDITH HARPER - the secretary to the late Bleibner, she met her employer in Cairo just six months ago.
