Egypt Calling
Angie Kimball works as a collections manager and curator at the History and Heritage Museum and she loves her job. That happiness gets a big hit when a huge statue of Ramses II suddenly disappears without a trace.
That disappearance is the start of a string of strange events and flashbacks with connections to ancient Egypt. A harp seems to be the linking pin in these connections. That's odd, as Angie doesn't even play the harp, but she'll take any help to get things back to normal. Although, will things ever be normal again after this?
Visit the museum and meet Pharaohs and Egyptian Queens, because Egypt is calling.

About the author
Paul Kater
108 books44 followersPaul Kater was born in the Netherlands in 1960. He quickly developed a feel for languages but did not pursue a career in those as his native language, Dutch, did not offer many options in that time.
After learning far too much about computers he started to make a living with them. During all that time he always wrote short stories, little things to entertain family and friends and also himself with.
Since 2003 he's been writing more seriously, first posting his scribblings on an amateur writer's mailing list, and then publishing shorter and longer stories on the internet. Due to the international character of the Internet, all Paul's stories so far are written in English. The best known books he wrote are the Hilda the Wicked Witch series.
Paul currently lives in Cuijk, in the Netherlands, with his books and the many characters he's developed in the past years, who claim he is a figment of their imagination.

Egypt Calling is kind of a unique take on the sort of "modern person lands in history / fantasy world" trope and it really works. I don't want to give away too much of the plot but it's the story of a museum worker who finds herself drawn into an Ancient Egyptian mystery through an artefact at her work, and it's a great mix of excitement and humour coupled with some fabulous research. Even the modern day museum settings are portrayed accurately, which helps counterpoint the fantastic elements perfectly and serves to draw the reader in further. Although I am a bit suspicious of the male MC. He seems a bit too perfect. Calling it now. He'll turn out to be a villain in subsequent books...
