That isthe question that haunts the authorities after a distinguished Britishgentleman with an upper-crust accent cons his way past a security guard andescapes into the desert carrying a world-famous, one-of-a-kind historic relic.But the Egyptian authorities and Interpol believe they know the identity of theculprit. The brazen crime bears all the earmarks of the work of one "SirJohn Smythe," the suave and dangerously charming international art thiefwho is, in fact, John Tregarth, the longtime significant other of Vicky Bliss.But John swears he is retired - not to mention innocent - and he vows to clearhis name by hunting down the true criminal.Vicky's faith in her man's integrity leaves her no choicebut to take a hiatus from her position at a leading Munich museum and set outfor the Middle East. Vicky's employer, the eminent Herr Doktor Anton Z.Schmidt, rotund gourmand and insatiable adventurer, decides to join theentourage.But dark days and myriad dangers await them in this land ofintriguing antiquity. Each uncovered clue seems to raise even more questionsfor the intrepid Vicky - the most troubling being, Where is John going duringhis increasingly frequent and unexplained absences? And the stakes are elevatedconsiderably when a ransom note arrives accompanied by a grisly mementointended to speed up negotiations - because now it appears that murder mostfoul has been added to the equation.
