it was amazing

The story of two sets of sisters centuries apart, a tale of betrayal and loss and a journey of self discovery and the beginning of forgiveness and togetherness.
Clemmie has always been fascinated by Egyptology and the story of Isis and Nephthys, she reads the hieroglyphics of amulets her father has procured during his exhibition evenings. But, one evening, he unravels a double headed mummy and the amulet with it tells of a curse. Tragedy strikes the family so Clemmie decides to travel to Egypt to return the amulet to its rightful place in order to break the curse.
This novel is an epic read, I found it fascinating to read of Victorian Egypt, like Clemmie I'm intruiged by the Egyptians past and their temples and funerary rituals. Hearing Mariams opinions of antiquity hunters puts a different perspective for the artifacts that have been found in the past and the nefarious actions of some to obtain these wonderful items. It's certainly not a quick easy read but definitely one to savour
