The New York Museum of Natural History receives by mail their entire diamond collection ground down to dust. Diogenes, who stole the gems in Dance of Death, is throwing down the gauntlet. In the throes of a PR nightmare, the museum plans a massive and extravagant exhibition to regain public trust and good will. They will reopen the Tomb of Senef, an Egyptian tomb previously on exhibit in the 1930s that was locked away to make room for a subway tunnel. An important Egyptian artifact found by Napoleon's army and nicked by the British before it was eventually bought by JP Morgan and brought to the museum. It was placed in the Museum in the basement. But the museum's dark secret is that the tomb is cursed and was bricked away to cover up a series of bizarre deaths. Now, Nora Kelly leads an amazing expedition to the basement to uncover the relic, much like a real archeological dig. When the tomb is unsealed, the curse is released and people begin dying. Meanwhile, D'Agosta, Eli Glinn, Constance and Proctor work out one of the most brilliant prison breaks in history -releasing Pendergast from Herkmoor prison.

Must Read
Another hit book for Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. I highly recommend this book to read. Although is can be read as a stand alone novel, I recommend reading the whole "Pendergast" series in order. It is very entertaining and enjoyable. They are especially hard to put down once you have started reading any of their books.

Great Book
A good end to the series. I must read for those who have read the previous 2(Brimstone & Dance of Death). Some good plot twists that made it hard to put down.

I hope there are more!
The book continues on a wonderful series that keeps you reading the book until you are finished, without wanting to put it down.
