While volunteering at the local museum’s Egypt exhibit, Lana Richardson begins to feel haunted by a mummified prince

All her life, Lana has been fascinated by stories of ancient Egypt. So when a new exhibit featuring the mummy of the young Egyptian prince Nefra comes to the town museum, Lana volunteers to give tours to visitors. Inexplicably, Lana feels herself drawn to the tragic story of Nefra, who died on the eve of his wedding to his love, the beautiful princess Urbena. Although Nefra has been dead for thousands of years, Lana cannot get the young man out of her mind.
 
When a priceless treasure is stolen from the exhibit and Lana is the only witness, she knows it’s up to her to find the thief. But vivid dreams of Nefra and Urbena have been haunting her sleep, and Lana swears she can hear Nefra’s voice calling out to her. Is she going crazy? Or is she more connected to the story of the doomed lovers than she could ever have imagined?
