In 1936, anthropology student Charlotte Cross joins an archaeological dig in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings, but a tragic event changes her future forever. By 1978, she is an associate curator at the Met, focused on researching Hathorkare, a dismissed female pharaoh. Meanwhile, young Annie Jenkins lands a coveted role assisting Diana Vreeland with the Met Gala, the city’s most prestigious event. When a priceless Egyptian artifact vanishes on the night of the gala—amid whispers of an ancient curse—Charlotte and Annie join forces to recover it. Their search takes them back to Egypt, forcing Charlotte to confront long-buried secrets while uncovering the truth behind the artifact’s disappearance. But as they dig deeper, they find themselves in growing danger, entangled in a mystery that spans decades.
