Ava and Carol, teen detectives, can find a mystery just about anywhere, so why should Cairo, Egypt be any different?While Ava's mom, a world-renowned journalist is investigating the historical records behind King Tut's discovery, Ava and Carol accidentally, on purpose, become entangled in their own mystery.
They witness an older Egyptian man attempting to convince a police investigator that he is being watched, but his words fall on deaf ears. Ava, who can't stand to see sad old men, offers their assistance. Omar, the old man, warns them that it's too dangerous, but that only makes the girls more anxious to help.
Once on the case, the girls discover why Omar is being watched. He has an ancient map with clues that lead to a stolen treasure that had been passed down from King Tut's grandfather to the boy king himself. As the girls unravel the clues, the thieves become more desperate. If Ava and Carol find the treasure first, they'll turn it over to the Egyptian government.
In a twisty game of cat and mouse, the girls must use all their investigative skills and creativity to find the treasure before the bad guys, and rescue Omar, who had suddenly disappeared.
Follow teen sleuths Ava and Carol through the streets and pyramids of Egypt as they attempt to solve a mystery over a century old.
The Mystery of the Egyptian Pyramid is a fun, mystery adventure and is chock full of historical facts about the life and death of King Tut.
