Murder à la carte: Pyramids of Giza

Egypt 1924. Two years ago the tomb of Tutankhamun was uncovered and caused a worldwide sensation. Now an even more remarkable discovery has been made with the opening of the tomb of king Men-her-Ra by Sir John Willard and Felix Bleibner.

But within days, Tragedy has truck, Sir John dies suddenly of heart failure and two weeks later Blebibner too is dead, struck down by blood poisoning. When the latter's nephew, Rupert Bleibner, commits suicide in New York, the rumors of a curse reach hysteria.

Hercule Poirot summons the surviving members of the expedition to Cairo, where he will uncover the truth. Are these three deaths connected? Are there supernatural forces at work? Or is one of his dinner guests a murder.
