When an expedition to the tomb of Pharaoh Khardis III uncovers stolen emeralds, the team is suddenly pulled into a mysterious time shift—back to the era of the ancient Pharaohs and then just as quickly returned. The experience leaves them shaken, with more questions than answers about the tomb’s hidden power and the guardian who may have been watching over it all along.
