Evil has many faces, but for Detective Karen Murphy, the evil that she comes face to face with is beyond anything her rational mind could have conjured up. The sorcerer who slaughtered the family of the boy king Tutankhamun and murdered Cleopatra is at large in modern San Francisco. Karen's only hope is the mysterious Frenchman who seemingly defeated the sorcerer over 60 years before and now returns to make good on the prophetic words of an angry goddess from 35 centuries ago - that evil will die at the hands of a child unborn.
