The Green Mummy
Description
Archie Hope seeks to marry the delightful Lucy Kendal, the stepdaughter of Professor Braddock, an eccentric Egyptology enthusiast. Archie tries to gain Braddock’s approval by purchasing for him a rare Peruvian mummy—yet far from bringing a joyful resolution to Archie’s dilemma, the mummy’s arrival heralds murder and mystery. Plunged into chaos, the young couple and their friends must race to unravel a crime and uncover a missing fortune in Incan emeralds.
Blending classic detective fiction with light romance, The Green Mummy is a classic tale from the prolific Fergus Hume. By weaving popular Victorian sensibilities with the era’s fascination with antiquity and Egyptology, Hume delivers an engaging story of murder, greed, and suspense.
