Perfect for you if...

You love adventure stories where history and mystery collide, like Indiana Jones but set during the Napoleonic Wars.
You're drawn to protagonists who solve riddles and uncover ancient secrets whilst dodging both danger and authority.
You enjoy fast-paced plots with elaborate set pieces, from gambling dens to battles to tomb exploration.

Maybe not for you if...

You want literary depth or character introspection. This is plot-driven entertainment, not psychological exploration.
You prefer your historical fiction grounded in realism without the treasure-hunting and mystical elements.
You're not interested in books where beautiful women exist primarily to aid the male protagonist's quest.

About this book

Ethan Gage, an American expatriate and former assistant to Ben Franklin, wins a mysterious medallion in a card game in post-revolutionary Paris. When he is framed for murder, he flees France and joins Napoleon Bonaparte's military campaign to Egypt, with Lord Nelson's fleet in pursuit. Accompanied by a beautiful Macedonian slave, Gage embarks on an adventure across ancient Egypt. He discovers that the medallion he won may hold the key to solving a centuries-old mystery: who built the Great Pyramids and for what purpose. The novel combines historical events with puzzles and secrets tied to ancient Egypt.
