A priceless relic has been delivered to the Emersons. But more than history surrounds this golden likeness of a forgotten king, for it is said early death will befall anyone who possesses it. â The woman warns that the cursed statue has already killed her husband. Now Amelia Peabody and her loved ones are plunged into a storm of secrets, treachery, and murder by the widow's strange story and stranger request. Each step toward the truth reveals a new peril, suggesting this curse is no mere superstition. And the next victim of the small golden king could be any member of the close-knit clan--perhaps even Amelia herself.
