Belzoni's Bequest Fiona Deal

Swapping the heat and dust of Egypt for the cooler climes of London, Merry and Adam find themselves caught up in an intrigue involving the Egyptian collection at the exalted British Museum. First of all, an Egyptologist disappears in the midst of a security evacuation. Then Merry stumbles across a mystery suggesting the circus strongman Giovanni Belzoni and his wife discovered more than just tombs and temples during their excavations in Egypt in the early 1800s. A stolen journal, a set of newspaper-wrapped artefacts, and a blast from Adam's past combine to make this a most perplexing mystery!
