‘Come at once. Carter’s unleashed hell in Egypt.’
It's New Years Eve,1922.
Parisian witch Celeste Bérenger’s seaside holiday plans with her partner Tolly are upended by a frantic telegram from Tolly’s ex-husband, begging for help.
Leaving the undead Lord Byron in a snit at being left at home, Celeste accompanies her partner to Egypt. There, faced with an ancient Celtic demigod trapped in a scarab ring, and the vengeful spirit of an ancient Egyptian priest hell-bent on destroying those who caused his death, Celeste and Tolly are plunged into a world of cursed artifacts, duplicitous sphinxes, and a deadly conspiracy.
The two witches must rely on their magic, their wits, a pair of independent donkeys, and the unshakeable power of their love to save a servant of the goddess Epona and stop a power-mad priest from conquering a nation.
