Survive the night in a cursed Ancient Egyptian pyramid. A thrilling adventure for fans of Christopher Edge's Escape Room, M G Leonard's Hunt For The Golden Scarab, and Robin Stevens' Murder Most Unladylike.
You've spent years searching for the past, Joanna. Didn't you ever sense the past looking back at you, waiting to be found?
After the turmoil of WWI, twelve-year-old language whiz Joanna Archer loves living in Egypt with her archaeologist parents and mechanics-obsessed little sister, Sami. But time and luck are running out for the Archers. Jo knows they must find the long-lost tomb of the legendary Egyptian queen, Nitiqreti, or lose their home forever.
Then the unthinkable happens. Jo finds the key.
Jo and Sami follow a series of clues and discover Nitiqreti's pyramid. But it's a trap. Now the girls are locked inside, faced with booby traps, deadly magical illusions, devious puzzles, and murderous rivals - and the vengeful spirit of the ancient queen, who wants to trade their lives for her own resurrection . . .

Notă biografică
Cristin Williams was born in Japan while her parents were working as Russian-English translators for the US military. She moved frequently throughout her childhood, which fuelled her love of reading, as books were the friends she never had to say goodbye to. After university, Cristin spent the rest of her twenties traveling the world while working for a non-profit. She's visited nearly forty countries and speaks three languages.
She now lives in Belgium with her Flemish husband and four daughters. When she's not writing adventure-filled historical fantasy, you'll find her studying history, photographing castles, or exploring the tangled forests of the Belgian Ardennes.
For adult readers, Cristin is the author of historical fantasy novel The Whisper of Stars. The Pyramid Key is her first novel for children.
