Treasure Hunt Amazing but True Book Eight

By Laura K Marshall

The Captain sweeps Clara off to the sun baked desert of Egypt on a quest for a mysterious treasure. They were met at the first oasis by Clive, the Captains faithful friend and servant. Together they must overcome the trials of the desert while following the clues of an ancient map, and that is just the beginning. They must endure spitting camels, harsh environs, and all that slithers in the desert, before delving into the unknown of an ancient temple. Down in the darkness of the temple, with only their torches to light the way, the trio must traverse the passageways and follow the cryptic clues of the map. What they find is completely unexpected and has an unforeseen effect on Clara.
